Usage Guidelines
Use the type mpls lsp ping command to configure parameters for an IP SLA LSP ping operation. After you
enter the command, you enter IP SLA MPLS LSP Ping configuration mode.
An MPLS LSP ping operation tests connectivity between routers along an LSP path in an MPLS network and
measures round-trip delay of the LSP by using an echo request and echo reply.
The MPLS LSP ping operation verifies LSP connectivity by using one of the supported Forwarding Equivalence
Class (FEC) entities between the ping origin and egress node of each FEC. The following FEC types are
supported for an MPLS LSP ping operation:
•
IPv4 LDP prefixes (configured with the target ipv4, on page 261 command)
•
MPLS TE tunnels (configured with the target traffic-eng , on page 265 command)
•
Pseudowire (configured with the target pseudowire, on page 263 command)
For MPLS LSP monitor ping operations, only IPv4 LDP prefixes are supported.
If the type mpls lsp ping command is used in IP SLA operation configuration mode, it configures the
parameters for the specific operation being configured. If the type mpls lsp ping command is used in IP SLA
MPLS LSP monitor configuration mode, it configures the parameters for all operations associated with the
