Srv6 Deployment guide

Hi

I’ve tried to run up the srv6 test setup as documented your “Srv6 -Deployment L3VPN” document and encountered the following problems:

  1. The setup does not document the requirement for an interface in the isis/ segment-routing/srv6 section

  2. The setup fails without the definition of an sr0 interface via ip link commands

  3. the setup fails without the definition of policy route definition causing a lookup in the main table like this:

policy {
    local-route6 {
        rule 500 {
            destination {
                address "2001:db8:2::/48"
            }
            set {
                table "main"
            }
            source {
                address "2001:db8:1:ffff::1"
            }
        }
    }
}

(Thanks to Jonathan Voss for this work around)

My setups:

Containerlab arm64 running based on vyos-2026.05.08-0416-rolling

Containerlab amd64 running container based on 03-2026.

Thanks for the product and your help.

Thank you for your comment! Yes, during this time we have been working with Jonathan Voss, and many new features and updates have been implemented. As a result, the current guide also needs to be updated accordingly. I will make sure to update it for future deployments.

Thanks for the response - maybe for the moment best to withdraw the deployment guide if it can’t produce a working lab? just saying…
