Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

The eca-route-type compatible command is used in OSPF VPN scenarios.

  • For the switch supporting RFC 4577, you can set the route type of the extended community attribute of OSPF VPN to 0x0306 and configure the switch to identify both 0x0306 and 0x8000 route types.
  • For the switch that does not support RFC 4577, you can set the route type of the extended community attribute of OSPF VPN to 0x8000 and configure the switch to identify only the 0x8000 route type.

The eca-route-type compatible command enables different switches to communicate with each other and avoid the failure in parsing the route type because the route type of the extended community attribute of OSPF VPN is unrecognized.

Precautions

The eca-route-type compatible command is forbidden in public network.
