The loopback address of the remote 7x50 (UNI-C) must be configured after the to keyword
and takes an IPv4 address as input.
The switching-type indicates the type of switching required for the gLSP. This can take a
number of values, as defined in RFC 3471, and extended in RFC 6004 and RFC 7074 for
Ethernet VPL (EVPL) services. The default CLI value is DCSC. This is the only supported
value in Release 13.0.
The encoding-type configuration specifies the encoding type of the payload carried by the
gLSP. line, indicating 8B/10B encoding, is the only supported type in Release 13.0.
The generalized-pid parameter specifies the type of payload carried by the gLSP. Standard
ethertype values are used for packet and Ethernet LSPs (see RFC 3471). Only Ethernet (value
33) is supported in Release 13.0.
Note that gLSPs are inherently bidirectional. That is, both directions of the gLSP are bound
together. The destination UNI-C 7x50 will automatically bind an incoming gLSP PATH
message to the corresponding egress direction based on the session name in the session object.
Any gLSP that needs to be bound to a specific TE Link (as refered to in the pPATH), will only
be allowed if the corresponding TE Link exists under config>router>gmpls. Constraints such
as HOP definition, SRLG, BW, etc., will be checked before signaling the gLSP.
Since RSVP signaling operates out of band, refresh reduction is not supported. RSVP
authentication is not supported on the 1830 UNI-N, but MD5 authentication is implemented.
A configurable retry-timer is supported.
A configurable retry-limit for each gLSP is supported, with a range of 0 to 10000, and a
default of 0.
The working-path command allows paths to be configured for the gLSP. At least a working-
path must be configured, although the path-name that it references may contain an empty
path.
RSVP uses the Fixed Filter (FF) style of RESV. The signaled MTU is hard-coded to 9212
bytes, as appropriate for Ethernet gLSPs.
The default setup and hold priorities are 5 and 1, respectively, and cannot be configured in
Release 13.0. gLSP preemption is not supported.
Record and record-label are enabled by default and no user configurable command is
therefore provided.
