Configuration prerequisites

Before you configure 6PE, complete the following tasks:

Configure the MPLS basic capability for the IPv4 MPLS backbone. For more information, see MPLS
Configuration Guide
.

Configure the IPv6 BGP peer on the PE routers. For more information, see the chapter “Configuring
BGP.”

If a peer group is to be specified, create the peer group beforehand in BGP view.

NOTE:

Because IPv6 packets have a length of 1280 bytes, you must configure the interface MTU and MPLS MTU
for the PE router’s interface connecting to the IPv4 network to be larger than 1280 bytes and 1284 bytes,

respectively. Otherwise, IPv6 packets are discarded.

Configuring basic 6PE capabilities

Specify the AS number for

the 6PE peer or peer group.

peer { ipv4-group-name |
ipv4-address
} as-number as-number

Not specified by default

4.

Enter IPv6 address family

view.

ipv6-family

N/A

5.

Enable the 6PE peer or peer
group.

peer { ipv4-group-name | ipv4-address
| ipv6-address } enable

Not enabled by default

6.

Enable the router to
exchange labeled IPv6

routes with the 6PE peer or
peer group.

peer { ipv4-group-name |
ipv4-address } label-route-capability

Not enabled by default

Configuring optional 6PE capabilities

To configure the 6PE optional capabilities:

Step Command
