An LMP traffic engineering link acts as a data channel connection between GMPLS devices.
To configure a traffic engineering link, include the te-link statement at the [edit protocols link-management] hierarchy level:
- [edit protocols link-management]
-
te-link te-link-name {
- disable;
-
-
interface interface-name {
-
local-address ip-address;
-
remote-address ip-address;
-
remote-id id-number;
- }
-
label-switched-path lsp-name;
-
local-address ip-address;
-
remote-address ip-address;
-
remote-id id-number;
- }
Complete the procedures in the following sections to configure an LMP traffic engineering link:
When you configure a traffic engineering link that contains interfaces for an LMP peer, you must also configure a control channel. However, no control channel is required for a traffic engineering link that contains an LSP. For information on configuring control channels, see Configuring LMP Peers.
