MPLS

  • Pseudowire over Aggregated Ethernet (MX304)—Terminate pseudowire connections directly on the aggregated Ethernet (AE) interface to bypass the downstream loopback penalty associated with pseudowire headend termination (PWHT). Pseudowire over AE (PSoverAE) supports the same features as PWHT and pseudowire over RLT (PSoRLT). Some features such as class of service (CoS) are more streamlined compared with PWHT and PSoRLT.

    [See MPLS Pseudowires Configuration and Aggregated Ethernet Configuration].

  • BGP VPN Option C MPLS-over-SRv6 (MX204, MX240, MX301, MX304, MX480, MX960, MX10003, MX10004, MX10008, MX10016, MX2008, MX2010, and MX2020)—Use this feature to integrate SRv6 with MPLS-based BGP Layer 3 VPN services. Use SRv6 SIDs for routing in SRv6 domains while preserving MPLS label operations in MPLS domains. This feature enables MPLS-based BGP Layer 3 VPN services to interwork seamlessly across SRv6 by leveraging BGP label unicast (BGP-LU) for IPv4 loopback reachability and signaling SRv6 SIDs alongside MPLS labels using the Prefix-SID attribute. Configure static or dynamic end-dtm-SIDs and enable BGP-LU to advertise or accept SRv6 services. Manage ingress, transit, and egress routes, including label push, swap, and encapsulation. This configuration enhances scalability across multi-domain networks.

  • Enhancements to MPLS auto-bandwidth (MX204, MX240, MX304, MX480, MX960, MX10003, MX10004, MX10008, MX10016, MX2008, MX2010, and MX2020)—Use dynamic bandwidth allocation for RSVP label-switched paths based on traffic volume, providing granular control and flexibility in managing network resources. The polling-profile statement under [edit protocols mpls statistics auto-bandwidth] supports multiple polling profiles with different intervals tailored to specific label-switched paths. Use this configuration to optimize bandwidth adjustments to meet diverse service requirements. Apply adjust-threshold settings for precise overflow and underflow triggers. Enhanced CLI commands define polling profiles, associate them with LSPs, and configure thresholds, improving monitoring and troubleshooting in complex network environments.
