Using mpls ip default-route command

It enables the distribution of labels associated with the IP default route.

Usage

mpls ip default-route

Example

Using no mpls ip default-route command

It disables the distribution of labels associated with the IP default route.

Usage

no mpls ip default-route

Example

Using the vrrp command

The SCC redundancy mechanism is based on the Virtual Router2 Redundancy Protocol (VRRP RFC-2338), which
is designed to eliminate the single point of failure inherent in the static default routed environment. VRRP specifies
an election protocol that dynamically assigns responsibility for a virtual router to one of the VRRP routers on a LAN.
The VRRP router controlling the IP address(es) associated with a virtual router is called the Master, and forwards
packets sent to these IP addresses. The election process provides dynamic fail-over in the forwarding responsibility
should the Master become unavailable. Any of the virtual router's IP addresses on a LAN can then be used as the
default first hop router by end-hosts.

This is beneficial because VRRP is a higher availability default path without requiring configuration of dynamic
routing or router discovery protocols on every end-host.

Usage

vrrp interface <Ethernet | VLAN> <slot number>\<port number>[\VLAN ID>] <number> ip

<IP address> priority <priority value> [preempt-mode <on | off>]

Host(config)# mpls ip default-route

Host(config)# mpls ip default-route

Host(config)# no mpls ip default-route

Host(config)# no mpls ip default-route

Host(config)# vrrp interface

Note:

The virtual router IP should belong to the same subnet as the protected interface. The VRRP preempt

mode default value is off. The write terminal command should not present the preempt-mode when set to
its default value.
