Configuring a Tunnel Policy

Context

In general, VPN traffic is forwarded through an LSP tunnel but not an MPLS TE tunnel. To import VPN traffic to the MPLS TE tunnel, you need to configure a tunnel policy.

Procedure

You can configure either of the following types of tunnel policies according to service requirements:
  • Tunnel type prioritizing policy: Such a policy specifies the sequence in which different types of tunnels are selected by the VPN. For example, you can specify the VPN to select the TE tunnel first.
  • Tunnel binding policy: This policy binds a TE tunnel to a specified VPN by binding a specified destination address to the TE tunnel to provide QoS guarantee.

For detailed instructions, see Configuring and Applying a Tunnel Policy in "BGP/MPLS IP VPN Configuration" in the S2720, S5700, and S6700 V200R019C10 Configuration Guide - VPN.
