Tunnel configurations can be locked by the controller when the configurations are sent to a NetEngine 8000 F.
In service delivery, a controller delivers tunnel configurations to a NetEngine 8000 F. The NetEngine 8000 F uses the obtained configurations to create a tunnel or modify an existing tunnel. To prevent users from modifying such tunnel configurations, the controller delivers the mpls te lock command to lock the configurations, in addition to configurations to the NetEngine 8000 F. Before you modify the configuration of a tunnel, run the undo mpls te lock command to unlock the tunnel configuration on the tunnel interface.
Before locking the tunnel configuration, complete the following tasks:
Configure the controller to deliver tunnel configurations to a NetEngine 8000 F.
Assign a user management rights.
The system view is displayed.
The tunnel interface view of an MPLS TE tunnel is displayed.
The configuration of the MPLS TE tunnel is locked.
The configuration is committed.
After locking the tunnel configurations, verify that no command can be run on the tunnel interface to modify configurations and commands can be run only after the undo mpls te lock command is run to unlock the configurations.
