Cisco IOS XR focus at the event
SR-MPLS Interoperability
SR Interop Highlights
• Cisco was one of a total of ten (10)
network and test equipment
vendors that validated readiness of
their SR implementations
• SR-MPLS dominated on those test
cases using MPLS as a transport
• This included the transport of services such
as IP VPN and Ethernet VPN
• LDP and RSVP-TE were not

validated at the event
© Picture and table by EANTC

• IS-IS chosen as the main IGP throughout the event
• Baseline IS-IS SR extensions were successfully verified
• No interoperability issues were observed among Cisco and
vendors that we interconnected with
• Functionality re-tested in 2019 included:
− IPv4 SR IS-IS extensions
− Prefix Segment ID (Prefix-SID) for host prefixes including both Node and
Anycast SIDs
− Adjacency Segment IDs (Adj-SIDs) for IS-IS adjacencies
− SR OAM - IPv4 IGP-Prefix SID Target FEC Stack sub-TLV
− BGP SR - SR Prefix SID extensions for BGP (BGP-SR)
− Topology Independent LFA (TI-LFA) FRR
• Functionality verified for the first time in 2019:
− SR IGP Flexible Algorithms
• Functionality not tested in 2019 but previously verified in 2018:
− Prefix-to-SID mapping advertisements performed by the SR Mapping
Server (SRMS) function
Homogeneous SRGB
• Interop conducted with homogeneous SRGB among all
major vendors
− Great news for multi-vendor deployments!!!
− Operational simplicity
− Anycast SID
TI-LFA Highlights
• TI-LFA a key area of execution for
Cisco since we started shipping it in
2014
• Cisco participated with ASR 9000
as PLR and P-Q nodes
• Cisco successfully validated TI-LFA
with Local SRLG protection
• Cisco successfully validated sub-
50 msec protection with TI-LFA

Beyond the Report … TI-LFA
• Beyond protocol interoperability, aspects NOT COVERED by
the report and important to consider:
• Does the implementation provide per-destination (per-
prefix) backup paths?
• Does the implementation provide prefix-independent
convergence?
• Does the implementation provide protection to traffic that
originally is forwarded using other paradigms such as LDP
signaling or pure IP traffic (IP-routed traffic)?
SR IGP Flexible Algorithms
• Newest member of Cisco’s
SRTE portfolio
− draft-ietf-lsr-flex-algo
− Shipping since Q4CY18
• First time interop test in
industry
• What was tested?
− ISIS FA extensions
− No interop issues found
© Picture by EANTC
• Complements the SRTE solution with customizable Prefix-SIDs
• We call “Flex-Algo”
• The algorithm is defined by the operator, on a per-deployment basis
• Flex-Algo K is defined as
• The minimization of a specified metric: IGP, delay, …
• The exclusion of certain link properties: link-affinity, SRLG, …
© 2019 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Public 28
• Examples
− Operator defines Flex-Algo 128 as “minimize IGP metric while avoiding links with link-
affinity “brown”
− Operator defines Flex-Algo 129 as “minimize delay metric”

• Examples
− Operator defines Flex-Algo 128 as “minimize IGP metric while avoiding links with link-
affinity “brown”
− Operator defines Flex-Algo 129 as “minimize delay metric”
And the question is … How many labels are needed to enforce traffic on the

SR OAM Highlights
• RFC 8287 defined extensions to
perform LSP Ping and Traceroute
operations for SR IGP-Prefix SIDs and
IGP-Adjacency SIDs with an MPLS data
plane
• Cisco was successfully validated as
initiator of SR OAM ping / traceroute
operations - using an MPLS echo
request with a target FEC Stack TLV
carrying FECs with IPv4 IGP-prefix SID
sub-TLV
• Cisco was successfully validated as
target / responder of SR OAM ping /
traceroute operations

Beyond the Report … SRTE
• Beyond protocol interoperability, aspects NOT COVERED by the report and
important to consider:

the SR principles? (maximize ECMP and minimize SID-list)
• Does the vendor implementation allow for path computation at the
headend?
• Does the vendor implementation provide maximum platform scale without
a-priori full-mesh connectivity?
• Does the vendor implementation avoid complex and performance-impacting
legacy traffic steering techniques?

Conclusion
Conclusion
• With strong customer adoption and multi-vendor consensus with
standardization at IETF, SR has become de-facto SDN architecture
• This year interop provides the latest proof-point of overwhelming multi-vendor
support
• SR innovation continues to expand its applicability to more use cases, such as 5G
• Also with strong multi-vendor support and sophistication of test scenarios,

EVPN continues to establish its dominance in Carrier Ethernet and
Datacenter usecases
• Beyond baseline protocol interop, operators shall evaluate a vendor’s
offering based on operational simplicity, on-demand / automated
functionality that ultimately leads to scalable and performant offerings
