    Verify Interfaces

    Purpose

    Confirm that the interfaces are configured correctly with the family mpls statement.

    Action

    To determine that the relevant interfaces are up and configured correctly, enter the following commands from the ingress, transit, and egress routers:

    user@host> show interfaces terseuser@host> show configuration interfaces type-fpc/pic/port

    Sample Output

    user@R1> show interfaces so* terse
    Interface               Admin Link Proto Local                 Remote
    so-0/0/0                up    up  
    so-0/0/0.0              up    up   inet  10.1.12.1/30    
                                       iso  
                                       mpls 
    so-0/0/1                up    up  
    so-0/0/1.0              up    up   inet  10.1.15.1/30    
                                       iso  
                                       mpls 
    so-0/0/2                up    up  
    so-0/0/2.0              up    up   inet  10.1.13.1/30    
                                       iso   <<< family mpls is missing
    so-0/0/3                up    down
    
    user@R1>  show configuration interfaces so-0/0/2 
    unit 0 {
        family inet {
            address 10.1.13.1/30;
        }
        family iso; <<<  family mpls is missing
    }
    

    Meaning

    The sample output shows that interface so-0/0/2.0 on the ingress router does not have the family mpls statement configured at the [edit interfaces type-fpc/pic/port] hierarchy level, indicating that the interface is incorrectly configured to support the LSP. The LSP is configured correctly at the [edit protocols mpls] hierarchy level.

    The output from the transit and egress routers (not shown) shows that the interfaces on those routers are configured correctly.
