Abstract Abstract
IGP protocols historically compute the best paths over the network IGP protocols historically compute the best paths over the network
based on the IGP metric assigned to the links. Many network based on the IGP metric assigned to the links. Many network
deployments use RSVP-TE or Segment Routing - Traffic Engineering (SR- deployments use RSVP-TE or Segment Routing - Traffic Engineering (SR-
TE) to steer traffic over a path that is computed using different TE) to steer traffic over a path that is computed using different
metrics or constraints than the shortest IGP path. This document metrics or constraints than the shortest IGP path. This document
