Configuring Static Route Frr; Configuration Guidelines; Configuration Procedure - HP 6125XLG Configuration Manual

Configuring static route FRR

A link or router failure on a path can cause packet loss and even routing loop. Static route fast reroute
(FRR) enables fast rerouting to minimize the impact of link or node failures.

routes matching the specified criteria. Packets are directed to the backup next hop to avoid traffic
interruption.

Configuration guidelines

Do not use static route FRR and BFD (for a static route) at the same time.
•
• Static route does not take effect when the backup output interface is unavailable.
Equal-cost routes do not support FRR.
•
The backup output interface and next hop cannot be modified directly or the same as the primary
•
output interface and next hop.

Configuration procedure

To configure static route FRR:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Configure the source
address of BFD echo
packets.
Figure 1, upon a link failure, FRR specifies a backup next hop by using a routing policy for

Remarks
N/A
By default, the source address
of BFD echo packets is not
configured.
