Checking BIERv6 Network Path Information Using Tracert

On a BIERv6 network, tracert can be used to locate faults.

Prerequisites

Before using the tracert bier ipv6 command to check the connectivity of a BIERv6 network, ensure that a BIERv6 tunnel has been correctly configured.

Procedure

  1. Run the tracert bier ipv6 sub-domain subDomainId bsl { 64 | 128 | 256 } { bfr-id bfrID | bfr-id-start bfrIdStartVal bfr-id-end bfrIdEndVal } [ -a source-ip-address | -f first-ttl-val | -m max-ttl-val | -w timeout | udp-port dstPort6 | entropy entropy-val ] * command to discover the gateways through which packets to the destination BIERv6 device passes and locate the failure point on the BIERv6 network.

    The following is an example:

    <HUAWEI> tracert bier ipv6 sub-domain 1 bsl 64 bfr-id 152
      Tracert BIER IPv6: Subdomain ID: 1, BSL: 64, BFRID: 152, press CTRL_C to break
      TTL     Replier(BFR-ID)                                   Time      Type
      0                                                                   Ingress
      1       2001:DB8:1::1(152)                                516 ms    Egress

  2. (Optional) Run the following commands to configure functions related to BIERv6 Echo Request packets.
