P routers in your MPLS network must have the following entities configured before these devices are prestaged:

  • A Gigabit Ethernet interface to each router in the network

  • Loopback interface

  • MPLS protocol

  • OSPF protocol

  • LDP protocol

Figure 1 shows a simple network with one P router connecting five N-PE routers.
