Enabling MPLS TE and RSVP-TE
Context
To create a dynamic MPLS TE tunnel, first enable MPLS TE, enable RSVP-TE globally, enable RSVP-TE on an interface, and perform other configurations, such as setting the link bandwidth attributes and enabling CSPF.
Perform the following configurations on each node of the MPLS TE tunnel.
Procedure
- Run system-view
The system view is displayed.
- Run mpls
The MPLS view is displayed.
- Run mpls te
MPLS TE is enabled on the node globally.
- Run mpls rsvp-te
RSVP-TE is enabled on the node.
- Run quit
The system view is displayed.
- Run interface interface-type interface-number
The MPLS TE interface view is displayed.
- (Optional) On an Ethernet interface, run undo portswitch
The interface is switched to Layer 3 mode.
By default, an Ethernet interface works in Layer 2 mode.
Only the S5720-EI, S5720-HI, S5730-HI, S5731-H, S5731-S, S5731S-H, S5731S-S, S5732-H, S6720-EI, S6720-HI, S6720S-EI, S6730-H, S6730S-H, S6730-S, and S6730S-S support switching between Layer 2 and Layer 3 modes.
- Run mpls
The MPLS is enabled on the interface.
- Run mpls te
The MPLS TE is enabled on the interface.
- Run mpls rsvp-te
RSVP-TE is enabled on the interface.
