Configuration prerequisites

The configurations described in this section are used in conjunction with CSPF and the dynamic signaling

protocol CR-LDP or RSVP-TE.

Configuration procedure

Configuring the failed link timer

A CSPF failed link timer starts once a link goes down. If IGP removes or modifies the link before the timer

expires, CSPF will update information about the link in TEDB and stops the timer. If IGP does not remove

or modify the link before the timer expires, the state of the link in TEDB will change to up.
To configure failed link timer:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enter MPLS view.

mpls

N/A

3.

Configure the CSPF failed link
timer.

mpls te cspf timer failed-link
timer-interval

Optional.
The default is 10 seconds.

Configuring flooding thresholds

After the bandwidth of links regulated by MPLS TE changes, CSPF may need to recalculate paths. This

tends to be resource consuming as recalculation involves IGP flooding. To reduce recalculations and
flood only significant changes, you may configure the following two IGP flooding thresholds in

percentages:

Up threshold. When the percentage of available-bandwidth increase to the maximum reservable
bandwidth exceeds the threshold, the change is flooded.

Down threshold. When the percentage of available-bandwidth decrease to the maximum
reservable bandwidth exceeds the threshold, the change is flooded.

To configure flooding thresholds:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enter MPLS TE tunnel interface
view.

interface interface-type
interface-number

N/A

3.

Configure the up/down

thresholds for IGP to flood

bandwidth changes.

mpls te bandwidth change

thresholds { down | up } percent

Optional.
Both up and down flooding

thresholds are 10 by default.

Specifying the link metric type for tunnel path calculation
