Abstract
Example methods and systems for routing configuration for data center fabric maintenance are described. One example may comprise a management entity monitoring state information associated with multiple links connecting multiple network elements. The multiple links may include a first link connecting a first network element and a second network element. In response to determination that maintenance is required for the first link based on the state information, a maintenance mode may be activated for the first link. A first routing configuration may be performed to influence the first network element and the second network element to steer traffic away from the first link to second link(s). In response to deactivation of the maintenance mode for the first link, a second routing configuration may be performed to influence the first network element and the second network element to restore traffic on the first link.
