Huawei AR1200 Series - Basic Configuration

Context
LDP transport addresses are used to set up a TCP connection and need to be configured on both
nodes of a local LDP session. The default transport address is the loopback interface address
used as an LSR ID.
NOTE
l If LDP sessions are to be established over multiple links connecting two LSRs, LDP-enabled interfaces
of either LSR must use the default transport address or the same transport address. If multiple transport
addresses are configured on an LSR, only one transport address can be used to establish only one LDP
session.
l A change in an LDP transport address will terminate an LDP session. Exercise caution when running
the mpls ldp transport-address command.
Using the default LDP transport address is recommended.
Procedure
Step 1 Run:
system-view
The system view is displayed.
Step 2 Run:
interface interface-type interface-number
The view of the interface on which the LDP session is set up is displayed.
Step 3 Run:
mpls ldp transport-address { interface-type interface-number | interface }
An LDP transport address is specified. Either of the following settings can be used:
l interface-type interface-number: specifies the type and number of an interface. These
parameters allow LDP to use the primary IP address of a specified interface as a transport
address.
l interface: allows LDP to use the IP address of the current interface as a transport address.
The default transport address for a node on a public network is the LSR ID of the node, and the
default transport address for a node on a private network is the primary IP address of an interface
on the node.

2.3.6 (Optional) Configuring Timers for a Local LDP Session
A local LDP session uses the following timers: link Hello send timer, link Hello hold timer,
KeepAlive send timer, KeepAlive hold timer, and Exponential backoff timer.
Context
