Release Information

Description
Enable source routing.
Source routing allows a sender of a packet to partially or completely specify the route the packet takes through the network. In contrast, in non-source routing protocols, routers in the network determine the path based on the packet's destination.
 | Note: We recommend that you not use source routing. Instead, we recommend that you use policy-based routing or filter-based forwarding to route packets based on source addresses. |
