Query on “/network-instances/network-instance/afts/next-hop-groups/next-hop-group/state/color" #485

Closed manirk-jnpr closed 3 months ago

manirk-jnpr commented 3 years ago

Hi @aashaikh and @robshakir,

This is a query on AFTS for nexthop group color.

For hierarchical fib use case shown below, if there are multiple colors in the different paths of ECMP, which color should be streamed? Route -> ECMP -> path-1 (color 1) -> -> path-2 (color 2) ->

Would it make sense to move this color information under “/network-instances/network-instance/afts/next-hops/next-hop/” instead of having it in next-hop-group?

Thanks, Mani Juniper Networks.

Hi @aashaikh and @robshakir,

Could you respond to this query?

Thanks, Mani

Hi Mani,

The color leaf here is specifically intended to store colours as per the SR-TE policy architecture, where it is matched using the extended color community to routes within the system. Is this colour the same one that you're thinking of, as it's not clear to me that a single NHG can map to >1 color in the SR-TE architecture today AIUI.

Thanks, r.
