This read-only octet string records the actual path recorded by RSVP for this tunnel, presented as a displayable string of dotted-quad addresses repeated for each explicit hop along the route. It gives an administrator concrete visibility into the real hop-by-hop path RSVP-TE actually established, as opposed to the intended configuration, which is essential for confirming explicit-path or dynamic-path computation results. An engineer verifying that a tunnel is avoiding a specific unreliable hop would inspect csMplsVrPathRecordRoute to see the literal sequence of router addresses the LSP is using.
