    Configuring MPLS for Layer 2 VPNs (CLI Procedure)

    To configure MPLS for VPNs:

    1. Specify the interfaces used for communication between PE routers or between PE routers and provider routers.
      [edit]user@host# edit protocols mpls interface interface-name
    2. For RSVP only, configure the PE router interface communicating with another PE router or PE router with another provider router.

      1. Configure an MPLS LSP to the destination point on the PE router. The label switched path name is defined on the source router only and is unique between two routers.
        [edit protocols mpls]user@host# set label-switched-path-name path-name
      2. Specify the IP address of the LSP destination point, which is an address on the remote PE router.
        [edit edit protocols mpls label-switched-path path-name ]user@host# set to ip-address
      3. Enable protocol RSVP on the PE router interface communicating with another PE router or provider router.
        [edit edit protocols mpls label-switched-path path-name ]user@host# set protocols rsvp interfaceinterface-name
    3. Commit the configuration if you are finished configuring the device.
      [edit]user@host# commit
