2. 2 Agenda  Problem Statement  Introduction  Update

3. 3 Problem Statement  Co-routed LSP is not working  MPLS ping – no response  MPLS traceroute – downstream path  Upstream ?

4. 4 Introduction  Add upstream information to trace-route when trace- route is sent over a co-routed network path.

5. 5 Updates  Updates trace-route mechanism defined in RFC 4379  Verify both DSMap and UpStream Map (UPMap)

6. 6 UPMap  Similar to DSMap the UPMap TLV will have following information 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | MTU | Address Type | DS Flags | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Upstream IP Address (4 or 16 octets) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Upstream Interface Address (4 or 16 octets) | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Multipath Type| Depth Limit | Multipath Length | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+...

7. 7 Theory of Ops  LER1 sends packet with DSMap for Label L0 and UPMap for L1  LSR validates DSMap -If DSMap doesn’t match return DSMap mis-match.  LSR “validates” UPMap -If UPMap does not match return UPMap mis-match -If both UPMap and DSMap do not match return both Maps as mis-match -If both match send UPMap information for L3 LER1LSRLER2 L0L2 L1 L3

8. 8 Theory of Ops (cont.)  LER1 receives the trace-route reply message - Copies the DSMap for L2 and UPMap for L3 and sends it to LER2  LER2 validates DSMap. - If DSMap doesn’t match return DSMap mis-match.  LER2 “validates” UPMap LER1LSRLER2 L0L2 L1 L3
