Topology Independent Loop-Free Alternate (TI-LFA) specifies fast protections for transit nodes and links of an SR path, but does not present protections for the egress node. The solution uses a Mirror SID (End.M) behavior to steer traffic to a protector egress upon failure of the primary egress. The Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) (IS-IS/OSPFv3) extensions used to advertise the Mirror SID and protected locators are specified in {[}I-D.he-lsr-srv6-mirror-sid-igp-encoding{]}; they build on the IS-IS and OSPFv3 SRv6 extensions defined in {[}RFC9352{]} and {[}RFC9513{]}.}, }
