configure mpls rsvp-te bandwidth committed-rate

configure mpls rsvp-te bandwidth committed-rate committed_bps [Kbps | Mbps | Gbps] [{vlan} vlan_name | vlan all] {receive | transmit | both}

Description

Specifies the maximum amount of Committed Information Rate (CIR) bandwidth which can be used by RSVP-TE LSP reservations.

Syntax Description

committed_bps Specifies a bitrate for the bandwidth to be reserved.
Kbps Specifies the designated bitrate in kilobits per second.
Mbps Specifies the designated bitrate in megabits per second.
Gbps Specifies the designated bitrate in gigabits per second.
vlan Specifies that the bandwidth is to be reserved for a specific VLAN (Virtual LAN).
vlan_name Identifies the VLAN for which the bandwidth is reserved.
vlan all Specifies that the bandwidth is reserved for all VLANS that have MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) configured.
receive Specifies that the bandwidth is reserved for ingress traffic only.
transmit Specifies that the bandwidth is reserved for egress traffic only.
both Specifies that the bandwidth is reserved for both ingress and egress traffic.

Default

The default is zero, which means no RSVP-TE LSP bandwidth reservations are accepted.

If bandwidth is specified without specifying traffic direction, the default is both directions.

Usage Guidelines

This command specifies the maximum amount of Committed Information Rate (CIR) bandwidth which can be used by dynamic RSVP-TE LSP bandwidth reservations. By sub-allocating reserveable bandwidth for RSVP-TE from the VLAN‘s available bandwidth, the switch can guarantee that as LSPs are established, a minimum amount of CIR bandwidth is available for other traffic.

Note

Note

Beginning with ExtremeXOS Release 12.2.1, CIR bandwidth for the receive direction is not tracked by TE IGPs, such as OSPF (Open Shortest Path First)-TE, and configuring it is not required. Configuring CIR bandwidth for the receive direction does not prevent an LSP from going operational due to lack of receive bandwidth; however, it can be useful for tracking and informational purposes. An Info level log (MPLS.RSVPTE.IfRxBwdthExcd) is generated if the setup of a TE LSP requires receive bandwidth greater than that which is currently available for the receive direction on a particular interface. This generally happens only when TE LSPs with different previous hops ingress the switch on the same interface (for example, from a multi-access link) and egress the switch on different interfaces.

The keyword both configures the reserved bandwidth for both ingress and egress LSP CIR reservations and overwrites any previous receive or transmit settings.

Example

The following command reserves 25 Mbps of CIR bandwidth for all RSVP-TE CIR reservations on the specified VLAN:

configure mpls rsvp-te bandwidth committed-rate 25 Mbps vlan vlan_10

History

This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 11.6.

Platform Availability

This command is available only on the platforms that support MPLS as described in the ExtremeXOS 22.6 Feature License Requirements document.
