Creating An Mpls-Te Tunnel - Cisco ASR 9000 Series Configuration Manual

Creating an MPLS-TE Tunnel

Creating an MPLS-TE Tunnel
Creating an MPLS-TE tunnel is a process of customizing the traffic engineering to fit your network topology.
Perform this task to create an MPLS-TE tunnel after you have built the traffic engineering topology.
Before You Begin
The following prerequisites are required to create an MPLS-TE tunnel:
• You must have a router ID for the neighboring router.
• Stable router ID is required at either end of the link to ensure that the link is successful. If you do not
• If you are going to use nondefault holdtime or intervals, you must decide the values to which they are
SUMMARY STEPS
1. configure
2. interface tunnel-te tunnel-id
3. destination ip-address
4. ipv4 unnumbered type interface-path-id
5. path-option preference - priority dynamic
6. signalled- bandwidth {bandwidth [class-type ct ] | sub-pool bandwidth}
7. Use the commit or end command.
8. (Optional) show mpls traffic-eng tunnels
9. (Optional) show ipv4 interface brief
10. (Optional) show mpls traffic-eng link-management admission-control

assign a router ID to the routers, the system defaults to the global router ID. Default router IDs are subject
to change, which can result in an unstable link.
set.
