+# Using SR Policy in GoBGP library mode
+
+This page explains how to use GoBGP for Injecting SR Policy. This example shows how to build new SR Policy NLRI and associated with NLRI attributes. This attributes are sent as Tunnel Encapsulation of type 15 (SR Policy) SUB TLV's.

+## Result of injecting the SR policy
+
+Once the sr policy is injected, gobgp will advertise it to the peers with SR Policy enabled address family. Below is the output collected from Cisco's XRV9K router with enabled SR policy address family. Please note since the information used such as: bsid, endpoint adress etc is not realistic, the router does not install the sr policy, but still, it correctly displays what was programmed.
