Enables flow label for a pseudowire (PW) profile.
By default, control word is disabled for PW profiles.
Pseudowire profile configuration mode
The no form of the command disables flow label for a PW profile.
Flow label configuration improves load balancing of PW traffic over an MPLS network, particularly in the context of PWs that transport high volumes of traffic that are comprised of multiple individual traffic flows (for example, the same source-destination pair for a Transport Control Protocol (TCP) connection is an individual traffic flow).
The following example shows how to enable flow label for a PW profile named pw_example
device# configure terminal device(config)# pw-profile pw_example device(config-pw-pw_example)# flow-label
The following example shows how to disable flow label for a PW profile named pw_example
device# configure terminal device(config)# pw-profile pw_example device(config-pw-pw_example)# no flow-label
