Usage Guidelines

Enabling MPLS allows MPLS processing to begin for any enabled MPLS protocols (RSVP-TE and/or LDP).

While MPLS is transitioning to the enabled state, only the MPLS show commands are accepted.

Before you can enable MPLS on a SummitStack, the stack must meet the following requirements:
  • Each stack switch must meet the software and hardware requirements listed in the ExtremeXOS and Switch Engine 31.7 Feature License Requirements document.
  • You must configure the enhanced stacking protocol on each ExtremeSwitching series switch.
    Note

    Note

    When MPLS is enabled on a stack, you can only add MPLS-compatible switches to the stack.

Example

The following command globally enables MPLS on the switch:

enable mpls

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 and Switch Engine 31.7 Feature License Requirements document.
