MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP)

tion Guide
This section describes the steps required to configured MPLS-TP.
Configuration Overview
The following steps must be performed in order to configure MPLS-TP LSPs or PWs.
At the 7210 SAS LER and LSR:
1. Create an MPLS-TP context, containing nodal MPLS-TP identifiers. This is configured
under config>router>mpls>mpls-tp.
2. Ensure that a sufficient range of labels is reserved for static LSPs and PWs. This is
configured under config>router>mpls-labels>static-labels.
3. Ensure that a range of tunnel identifiers is reserved for MPLS-TP LSPs under
config>router>mpls-mpls-tp>tp-tunnel-id-range.
4. A user may optionally configure MPLS-TP interfaces, which are interfaces that no not use
IP addressing or ARP for next hop resolution. These can only be used by MPLS-TP LSPs.
At the 7210 SAS LER, configure:
1. OAM Templates. These contain generic parameters for MPLS-TP proactive OAM. An
OAM template is configured under config>router>mpls>mpls-tp>oam-template.
2. BFD templates. These contain generic parameters for BFD used for MPLS-TP LSPs. A
BFD template is configured under config>router>bfd>bfd-template.
3. Protection templates. These contain generic parameters for MPLS-TP 1-for-1 linear
protection. A protection template is configured under config>router>mpls>mpls-
tp>protection-template.
4. MPLS-TP LSPs are configured under config>router>mpls>lsp mpls-tp
5. Pseudowires using MPLS-TP are configured as spoke-sdps with static PW labels.
At an LSR, a use must configure an LSP transit-path under config>router>mpls>mpls-
tp>transit-path.
The following sections describe these configuration steps in more detail.
Node-Wide MPLS-TP Parameter Configuration
Generic MPLS-TP parameters are configured under config>router>mpls>mpls-tp. If a user
configures no mpls, normally the entire mpls configuration is deleted. However, in the case of
