Under normal circumstances, packets are forwarded through the main route. When the
main route goes down, the route with the highest priority among the backup routes is
selected to forward packets. When the main route recovers, the route selection process
is performed again and the main route is selected again to forward packets.
1.2.5 Route Recursion
The nexthops of some BGP routes (except EBGP routes) and static routes configured
with nexthops may not be directly connected. To forward the packets, the outgoing
interface to reach the nexthop must be available. Route recursion is used to find the
outgoing interface based on the nexthop information of the route. Link-state routing
protocols, such as OSPF and IS-IS, do not need route recursion because they obtain
nexthop information through route calculation.
1.2.6 Sharing of Routing Information
As different routing protocols use different routing algorithms to calculate routes, they
may find different routes. In a large network with multiple routing protocols, it is required
for routing protocols to share their routing information. Each routing protocol has its
own route redistribution mechanism. For detailed information, refer to the description
about route redistribution in each routing protocol.
