Re: SRLG Shared Risk Link Group with MPLS TE

HI Karim,

Thank you for the info

Shared Risk Link Groups (SRLGs) refer to situations where links in a
network share a common fiber (or a common physical attribute). If one link
fails, other links in the group may fail too. Links in the group have a
shared risk.
Can you give me a example which can explain me the above statement ..

Wat is exactly called as sharing common physical attributes. Is it they are
all part of same physical hardware.
I am not getting it exactly?
