SR based Loop-free implementation
Microloops are transient packet loops that occur in the network
following a topology change (link down, link up, node fault, or
metric change events). Microloops are caused by the non-simultaneous
convergence of different nodes in the network. If nodes converge and
send traffic to a neighbor node that has not converged yet, traffic
may be looped between these two nodes, resulting in packet loss,
jitter, and out-of-order packets. This document presents some
optional implementation methods aimed at providing loop avoidance in
the case of IGP network convergence event in different scenarios.
