Release Information Statement for IPv6 introduced in Junos OS Release 8.2.

Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 9.0 for EX Series switches.
Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 12.3 for ACX Series routers.
Description Enable source routing.
Source routing allows a sender of a packet to partially or completely specify the route
the packet takes through the network. In contrast, in non-source routing protocols, routers
in the network determine the path based on the packet's destination.
NOTE: We recommend that you not use source routing. Instead, we
recommend that you use policy-based routing or filter-based forwarding to
route packets based on source addresses.
