Affinity Maps
*************
Affinity maps provide a means of configuring Standard Admininistrative-Group
(RFC3630, RFC5305 and RFC5329) and Extended Admininistrative-Group (RFC7308).
An affinity-map maps a specific bit position to a human readable-name.
An affinity refers to a color or a ressource class in the Traffic Engineering
terminology. The bit position means the position of the bit set starting from
the least significant bit. For example, if the affinity 'blue' has bit position
0 the extended Admin-Group value will be 0x01. If the affinity 'red' bit
position 2 was added to a link in combination with the 'blue' affinity, the
Admin-Group value would be 0x05.
Command
-------
.. clicmd:: affinity-map NAME bit-position (0-1023)
Map the affinity name NAME to the bit-position. The bit-position is the key
so that only one name can be mapped to particular bit-position.
.. clicmd:: no affinity-map NAME
Remove the affinity-map mapping.
Affinity-maps with a bit-position value higher than 31 are not compatible with
Standard Admininistrative-Group. The CLI disallow the usage of such
affinity-maps when Standard Admininistrative-Groups are required.

.. clicmd:: admin-grp 0x(0-FFFFFFFF)
This commands configures the Traffic Engineering Admin-Group of the interface
as specified in RFC3630 (OSPF) or RFC5305 (ISIS). Admin-group is also known
as Resource Class/Color in the OSPF protocol.
.. clicmd:: [no] affinity AFFINITY-MAP-NAME
This commands configures the Traffic Engineering Admin-Group of the
interface using the affinity-map definitions (:ref:`affinity-map`).
Multiple AFFINITY-MAP-NAME can be specified at the same time. Affinity-map
names are added or removed if ``no`` is present. It means that specifying one
value does not override the full list.
``admin-grp`` and ``affinity`` commands provide two ways of setting
admin-groups. They cannot be both set on the same interface.
.. clicmd:: [no] affinity-mode [extended|standard|both]
This commands configures which admin-group format is set by the affinity
command. ``extended`` Admin-Group is the default and uses the RFC7308 format.
``standard`` mode uses the standard admin-group format that is defined by
RFC3630, RFC5305 and RFC5329. When the ``standard`` mode is set,
affinity-maps with bit-positions higher than 31 cannot be applied to the
interface. The ``both`` mode allows setting standard and extended admin-group
on the link at the same time. In this case, the bit-positions 0 to 31 are
the same on standard and extended admin-groups.
Note that extended admin-groups are only supported by IS-IS for the moment.
