Figure 7 Without TTL propagation

Follow these guidelines when you configure TTL propagation:

H3C recommends setting the same TTL processing mode on all LSRs of an LSP.

To enable TTL propagation for a VPN, you must enable it on all PE devices in the VPN, so that you
can get the same traceroute result (hop count) from those PEs.

To enable TTL propagation:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enable TTL propagation. mpls ttl propagate { public |

vpn }

By default, TTL propagation is enabled only
for public-network packets.
This command affects only the propagation
between IP TTL and label TTL. Within an

MPLS network, TTL is always copied between

the labels of an MPLS packet.

After TTL propagation is enabled or disabled, execute the reset mpls ldp command to make the

configuration take effect. For more information about the reset mpls ldp command, see MPLS Command

Reference.

Enabling sending of MPLS TTL-expired messages

This feature enables an LSR to generate an ICMP TTL-expired message upon receiving an MPLS packet

with a TTL of 1. If the MPLS packet has only one label, the LSR sends the ICMP TTL-expired message back

to the source through IP routing. If the MPLS packet has multiple labels, the LSR sends it along the LSP to

the egress, which then sends the message back to the source.
To enable sending of MPLS TTL-expired messages:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

N/A

2.

Enable sending of MPLS

TTL-expired messages.

By default, this function is enabled.
