Flex LSP Phase 2
Flex LSP phase 2 is supported effective Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.5.1. Flex LSP also known as Associated
Bidirectional Label Switched Paths (LSPs) are LSP instances where the forward and the reverse direction
paths are set up, monitored, protected independently, and associated together during signaling. The RSVP
Association aims to bind the forward and reverse LSPs together to form either a co-routed or a non co-routed
associated bidirectional traffic engineering (TE) tunnel.
The Cisco IOS XE Everest 16.5.1 supports only co-routed Flex LSP tunnels. Flex LSP Phase 2 supports the
following features:
• Shared Risk Link Groups (SRLGs) Protection – SRLGs indicate situations where links in a network
share a common fiber (or a common physical attribute). If one link fails, the other links in the group
may also fail. Links in this group have a shared risk.
The MPLS-TE SRLG Protection feature enhances backup tunnel path selection so that a backup tunnel
avoids using links that are in the same SRLG as interfaces the backup tunnel is protecting.

Non-revertive

Sticky
• Hop count and Cost max limit – Each path from the tunnel source node (head-end) to destination node
(tail-end) has a number of characteristics, including node hop count and accumulated path cost. Node
hop count is the number of nodes along a path excluding the source node.
To ensure that the ensure the selected path does not exceed the specified hop count, configure a maximum
node hop count.
Each link segment along the path has an associated path cost. Accumulated path cost is the sum of the
path cost of all link segments. In the co-routed tunnel case, the accumulated path cost includes both, the
forward and reverse link cost. To ensure the selected path does not exceed the specified cost value,
configure a cost max limit.
• ECMP min-fill, max-fill – Path calculation selects a path with the lowest accumulated path cost.
Sometimes there are multiple paths from the tunnel source node to the destination node, and all these
paths may have the same accumulated (and lowest) path cost. These paths are referred to as “Equal Cost
