Perform the display mpls te tunnel command on Switch A. You can see that two tunnels are present
with the outgoing interface being VLAN-interface 1 and VLAN-interface 4 respectively. This
indicates that a backup CR-LSP was created upon creation of the primary CR-LSP.

Perform the display mpls te tunnel path command on Switch A to identify the paths that the two
tunnels traverse:

Perform the tracert command to draw the picture of the path that a packet must travel to reach the
tunnel destination.
[SwitchA] tracert –a 1.1.1.9 3.3.3.9
traceroute to
3.3.3.9(3.3.3.9) 30 hops max,40 bytes packet

2 40.1.1.2 45 ms 20.1.1.2 29 ms 40.1.1.2 54 ms
The sample output shows that the current LSP traverses Switch B but not Switch D.
Shut down VLAN-interface 2 on Switch B. Perform the tracert command on Switch A to draw the
path to the tunnel destination. The output shows that the LSP is re-routed to traverse Switch D:
[SwitchA] tracert –a 1.1.1.9 3.3.3.9
traceroute to
3.3.3.9(3.3.3.9) 30 hops max,40 bytes packet

2 40.1.1.2 50 ms
Perform the display mpls te tunnel command on Switch A. You can see that only the tunnel
traversing Switch D is present:
