Configuring A Bidirectional Mpls Te Tunnel - HP FlexNetwork 10500 Series Configuration Manual

•
The route to the tunnel interface address and the route to the tunnel destination must be in the
same OSPF area or at the same IS-IS level.
Configuring IGP shortcut
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MPLS TE tunnel
interface view.
3. Enable IGP shortcut.
4. Assign a metric to the
MPLS TE tunnel.
Configuring forwarding adjacency
To use forwarding adjacency, you must establish two MPLS TE tunnels in opposite directions
between two nodes, and configure forwarding adjacency on both the nodes.
To configure forwarding adjacency:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MPLS TE tunnel
interface view.
3. Enable forwarding adjacency.

Configuring a bidirectional MPLS TE tunnel

Before you create a bidirectional MPLS TE tunnel, perform the following tasks:
•
Disable the PHP feature on both ends of the tunnel.
•
To set up a bidirectional MPLS TE tunnel in co-routed mode, you must specify the signaling
protocol as RSVP-TE.
To create a bidirectional MPLS TE tunnel, create an MPLS TE tunnel interface on both ends of the
tunnel and enable the bidirectional tunnel feature on the tunnel interfaces:
•
For a co-routed bidirectional tunnel, configure one end of the tunnel as the active end and the
other end as the passive end, and specify the reverse CRLSP at the passive end.
•
For an associated bidirectional tunnel, specify a reverse CRLSP at both ends of the tunnel.
To configure the active end of a co-routed bidirectional MPLS TE tunnel:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter MPLS TE tunnel
interface view.

By default, IGP shortcut is
disabled.
If no IGP is specified, both
OSPF and IS-IS will include
the MPLS TE tunnel in route
calculation.
By default, the metric of an
MPLS TE tunnel equals its IGP
metric.
