Configuring The Tunnel Interface - Cisco 10000 Series Configuration Manual

MPLS Traffic Engineering—DiffServ Aware

Configuring the Tunnel Interface

To configure the attributes for the tunnel on the tunnel interface, enter the following commands
beginning in global configuration mode:
Command
Step 1
Router(config)# interface tunnel number
Step 2
Router(config-if)# tunnel mode mpls
traffic-eng
Step 3
Router(config-if)# tunnel destination
{hostname | ip-address}
Step 4
Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls
traffic-eng bandwidth [sub-pool | global]
bandwidth
Step 5
Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls
traffic-eng priority setup-priority
[hold-priority]

Purpose
Creates a virtual tunnel interface and enters interface
configuration mode.
number is the number of the tunnel interface that you want to
create or configure. The Cisco 10000 series router does not limit
the number of tunnel interfaces that you can create.
Sets the mode of a tunnel to MPLS for traffic engineering.
Specifies the destination for a tunnel interface.
hostname is the name of the host destination.
ip-address is the IP address of the host destination.
Configures the bandwidth required for an MPLS traffic
engineering tunnel and assigns the tunnel to the sub-pool or
global pool.
(Optional) sub-pool indicates a subpool tunnel. If you do not
specify sub-pool, the tunnel is global pool.
global indicates a global pool tunnel. By default, all tunnels are
global pool.
bandwidth specifies the bandwidth (in kbps) allocated for the
MPLS traffic engineering tunnel. Valid values are from 1 to
4,294,967,295.
Configures the setup and reservation priority for an MPLS traffic
engineering tunnel.
setup-priority indicates the priority used when signaling a link
state protocol (LSP) for this tunnel to determine which existing
tunnels can be preempted. Valid values are from 0 to 7, where a
lower number indicates a higher priority. Therefore, an LSP with
a setup-priority of 0 can preempt any LSP with a non-0 priority.
hold-priority is the priority associated with an LSP for this tunnel
to determine if it should be preempted by other LSPs that are
being signaled. Valid values are from 0 to 7, where a lower
number indicates a higher priority.
