Any Transport over MPLS—Tunnel Selection

Tunnel Selection allows you to specify the path that Any Transport over MPLS (AToM) traffic uses.
You can specify either a MPLS traffic engineering tunnel or a destination IP address. If the specified path
is unreachable, you can specify that the virtual circuits (VCs) should use the default path, which is the
path that MPLS Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) uses for signaling.

Note

By default, the preferred-path sub-command has a fallback pseudowire. If the preferred pseudowire
goes down, the MPLS/LDP module switch the circuit temporarily to another pseudowire. When the
preferred pseudowire is up again, the circuit is switched back to the preferred pseudowire. The
preferred-path subcommand also has an disable-fallback option, so that no random pseudowire is
chosen if the preferred path goes down. The circuit is down until the preferred path pseudowire comes
back up. However, in the 12.2(33) SB release, by default, the preferred-path sub-command has the
disable-fallback option. There is no fallback pseudowire in this release, even when the option is stated
explicitly.

Configuration Example—Any Transport over MPLS: Tunnel Selection

The following example sets up two preferred paths for PE1. One preferred path specifies an MPLS traffic
engineering tunnel. The other preferred path specifies an IP address of a loopback address on PE2. There
is a static route configured on PE1 that uses a TE tunnel to reach the IP address on PE2.
