MPLS TE manager usage summary
For configuration procedures of the MPLS TE services, refer to the operation guide part of the MPLS
TE manager help.
Follow the steps below to quickly configure and use the MPLS TE manager.
1. Import device.
Import MPLS TE-capable devices to the MPLS TE manager system. This step is the prerequisite
to all other configurations. For the detailed configuration procedure, refer to Device
Management in the resource management part.
2. Adjust parameters.
After the MPLS TE devices are imported to the system, the system will display the configuration
information of the devices on the device management page. You may need to adjust some
of the device configurations, such as the device CR-LSP tie-breaking policy and the traffic
forwarding parameters. For the detailed configuration procedure, refer to Device Management
and Interface Management in the resource management part.
3. Configure explicit path (optional).
This step is not necessary in static CR-LSP tunnel configuration, and is optional in dynamic
tunnel configuration. An explicit path consists of a series of nodes and is used to restrict the
path that a tunnel is to pass. When configuring a tunnel, you can reference a configured
explicit path. For the detailed configuration procedure, refer to Explicit Path Management.
4. Configure tunnel.
After the above configuration, you can configure a tunnel. The system allows you to configure
an MPLS TE tunnel using static CR-LSP or a dynamic signaling protocol. Configuring an MPLS
TE tunnel through a static CR-LSP is simple. It requires no tunnel constraints and involves no
TE extension of any IGP or CSPF calculation. Configuring a tunnel through a dynamic signaling
protocol is relatively complicated. However, the dynamic signaling protocol can dynamically
