Step 3: Take Appropriate Action

Purpose

Depending on the error you encountered in your investigation, you must take the appropriate action to correct the problem. In the example below, the encapsulation types are mismatched.

Action

To correct the error in this example, enter the following commands:

[edit interfaces so-0/0/3]

user@R1# show

user@R1# delete encapsulation

user@R1# show

user@R1# commit

Sample Output

[edit interfaces so-0/0/3]

user@R6# show 

encapsulation cisco-hdlc;

unit 0 {

    family inet {

        address 10.1.36.2/30;

    }

    family iso;

    family mpls;

}

[edit interfaces so-0/0/3]

user@R6# delete encapsulation 

[edit interfaces so-0/0/3]

user@R6# show 

unit 0 {

    family inet {

        address 10.1.36.2/30;

    }

    family iso;

    family mpls;

}

[edit interfaces so-0/0/3]

user@R6# commit 

commit complete

What It Means

The sample output from egress router R6 shows that the Cisco HDLC was incorrectly configured on interface so-0/0/3 which prevented the LSP from using the intended path. The problem was corrected when the encapsulation statement was deleted and the configuration committed.
