Configuration of a network using a flex-algorithm routing mechanism

In some implementations, a first network device may receive an advertisement from a second network device. The advertisement may be associated with indicating that the second network device is configured to support a particular flex-algorithm. The first network device may identify, in the advertisem...

Zusammenfassung:	In some implementations, a first network device may receive an advertisement from a second network device. The advertisement may be associated with indicating that the second network device is configured to support a particular flex-algorithm. The first network device may identify, in the advertisement, an address of the second network device. The first network device may configure a routing table of the first network device to indicate that the second network device is capable of receiving traffic associated with the particular flex-algorithm based on the address. The first network device may perform, using the routing table, an action associated with routing the traffic associated with the particular flex-algorithm.
