Usage Scenario
To precisely control bit-error-triggered RSVP-TE tunnel switching based on the sensitivity of services to bit errors, configure the thresholds for bit-error-triggered RSVP-TE tunnel protection switching and revertive switching on a tunnel interface.
Then, the ingress of an RSVP-TE tunnel determines the bit error status of the primary and backup CR-LSPs based on the following rules: If the BER of a CR-LSP reaches or exceeds the threshold for bit-error-triggered RSVP-TE tunnel protection switching, the CR-LSP is in the excessive BER state. After the BER of the CR-LSP falls below the threshold for bit-error-triggered RSVP-TE tunnel revertive switching, the CR-LSP changes to the normalized BER state.
Bit error refers to the deviation between a bit that is sent and the bit that is received. BER is the number of bit errors divided by the total number of transferred bits during a specified period. The BER of a CR-LSP is calculated based on the BER of each section on a CR-LSP.
Prerequisites
The mpls rsvp-te command has been run in the MPLS view to enable RSVP-TE.
