Command History
Usage Guidelines An IP explicit path is a list of IP addresses, each representing a node or link in the explicit path. If you
e
nter the exclude-address command and specify the IP address of a link, the constraint-based Shortest
Path First (SPF) routine does not consider that link when it sets up Multiprotocol Label Switching
(MPLS) traffic engineering paths. If the excluded address is a flooded MPLS traffic engineering router
ID, the constraint-based SPF routine does not consider that entire node. The person performing the
configuration must know the router IDs of the routers because it will not be apparent whether the
specified number is for a link or for a node.
A.B.C.D Excludes an address from subsequent partial path segments. You can enter
t
he IP address of a link or the router ID of a node.
number Removes the specified address exclusion from an IP explicit path.
