Establishing an MPLS TE tunnel by using RSVP-TE

Before you configure this task, you must use the rsvp command and the rsvp enable command to enable RSVP on all nodes and interfaces that the MPLS TE tunnel traverses.

Perform this task on the ingress node of the MPLS TE tunnel.

To configure RSVP-TE to establish an MPLS TE tunnel:

Step

Command

Remarks

1. Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2. Enter MPLS TE tunnel interface view.

interface tunnel tunnel-number [ mode mpls-te ]

N/A

3. Configure MPLS TE to use RSVP-TE to establish the tunnel.

By default, MPLS TE uses RSVP-TE to establish a tunnel.

4. Specify an explicit path for the MPLS TE tunnel, and specify the path preference value.

mpls te path preference value { dynamic | explicit-path path-name } [ no-cspf ]

By default, MPLS TE uses the calculated path to establish a CRLSP.
