Abstract:
In some inter-AS and inter-area deployment scenarios for LSP Ping and
Traceroute, a replying LSR may not have the available route to the
initiator, and the Echo Reply message sent to the initiator would be
discarded resulting in false negatives or complete failure of
operation of LSP Ping and Traceroute. This document describes
extensions to LSP Ping mechanism to enable the replying LSR to have
the capability to relay the echo response by a set of routable
intermediate nodes to the initiator during the traceroute process in
inter-AS and inter-area scenarios.
