, configure FRR on Router B by using a routing policy to specify a backup next hop. When the

primary link fails, OSPF directs packets to the backup next hop. At the same time, OSPF calculates the

shortest path based on the new network topology, and forwards packets over the path after network

convergence.
You can configure OSPF FRR to calculate a backup next hop by using the loop free alternate (LFA)

algorithm, or specify a backup next hop by using a routing policy.

Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure OSPF FRR, complete the following tasks:

Configure IP addresses for interfaces to ensure IP connectivity between neighboring nodes.

Enable OSPF.

233B

Configuration guidelines

Do not use FRR and BFD at the same time. Otherwise, FRR might fail to take effect.

Do not use the fast-reroute lfa command together with the vlink-peer or sham-link (see MPLS
Command Reference
) command.

When both OSPF PIC and OSPF FRR are configured, OSPF FRR takes effect.
