    Verify the LSP Again

    Purpose

    After taking the appropriate action to correct the error, the LSP needs to be checked again to confirm that the problem in the physical layer has been resolved.

    Action

    To verify that the LSP is up and traversing the network as expected, enter the following command:

    user@host> show mpls lsp extensive

    Sample Output 1

    Meaning

    Sample Output 1 from ingress router R1 shows that the LSP is now traversing the network along the expected path, from R1 through R3 to R6, and the reverse LSP, from R6 through R3 to R1.

    Sample Output 2 from ingress router R1 shows that the LSP is forced to take the intended path because MPLS is deactivated on R1 interfaces so-0/0/0.0 and so-0/0/1.0. If these interfaces were not deactivated, even though the configuration is now correct, the LSP would still traverse the network through the alternate path.
