Establishing a backup CRLSP by using the path calculated by PCEs

Perform this task to enable the specified PCEs to calculate a backup CRLSP for the PCC. When the primary CRLSP fails, traffic is switched to the backup CRLSP to ensure continuous traffic forwarding.

To establish a backup CRLSP by using the path calculated by PCEs:

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. Enable tunnel backup and specify the backup mode.

mpls te backup { hot-standby | ordinary }

By default, tunnel backup is disabled.

4. Establish a backup CRLSP by using the path calculated by PCEs.

mpls te backup-path preference value dynamic pce [ ip-address ]&<0-8>

By default, the automatically calculated path is used to establish a backup CRLSP.

After this command is executed, the local device acts as a PCC and establishes PCEP sessions to the specified PCEs. If you do not specify a PCE, the local device establishes PCEP sessions to all discovered PCEs.
