A forwarding adjacency is a type of GMPLS traffic engineering link. It requires that you configure local and remote addresses to identify the link. A forwarding adjacency is associated with a specific peer router. You could configure multiple forwarding adjacencies to the same peer router.
To configure a forwarding adjacency, you need to configure the te-link statement at the [edit protocols link-management] hierarchy level:
- [edit protocols link-management]
-
te-link te-link-name {
-
label-switched-path lsp-name;
-
local-address ip-address;
-
remote-address ip-address;
- }
