Configuring LMP Peers

You need to configure network peers for GMPLS. A peer is a network device that your router communicates with when setting up the control and data channels. The peer is often an optical cross-connect (OXC).

To configure an LMP peer name, include the peer statement at the [edit protocols link-management] hierarchy level:




peer peer-name {

address ip-address;

control-channel control-channel-interface;



lmp-control-channel control-channel-interface {

remote-address ip-address;
}





lmp-protocol {

hello-interval milliseconds;

hello-dead-interval milliseconds;

retransmission-interval milliseconds;

retry-limit number;

passive;
}



te-link te-link-name;
}

The following sections describe how to configure the other statements needed for an LMP peer:
