Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

To set a mode of handling the EXP field in MPLS packets with label 7, run the entropy-label exp-mode command. Either of the following modes can be set (take effect only on the egress PE):

uniform: The egress PE copies the EXP value in an MPLS packet to the EXP field in the IP or inner packet.
pipe: The egress PE does not copy the EXP value in an MPLS packet to the EXP field in the IP or inner packet.

Precautions

This command applies only to the Admin-VS.
