Setting the From-Address for Dynamic Bypass LSPs

About this task

The user can configure an interface level from IP address when creating a dynamic bypass LSP for the protected MPLS interface . Use the dynamic bypasses from address as the IP address.

To set the from address for dynamic bypass LSPs, complete the following steps.

Procedure

  1. Enable the device for configuration.
    device>configure
  2. Enable the MPLS router.
    device(config)# router mpls
  3. Enable MPLS-capable interfaces and specify the selected interface. In this example, the selected Ethernet interface is 0/8.
    device(config-router-mpls)# mpls-interface ethernet 0/8
  4. Enable the interface level dynamic bypass.
    device(config-router-mpls-if-ethernet-0/8)# dynamic-bypass
  5. Configure the from address. In this example, the from address configuration is 11.11.11.11.
    device(config-router-mpls-if-ethernet-0/8-dynamic-bypass)# from 11.11.11.11

Example

The following example combines the steps above to configure the from command IP address for dynamic bypass LSPs to 11.11.11.11.

device>configure
device(config)# router mpls
device(config-router-mpls)# mpls-interface ethernet 0/8
device(config-router-mpls-if-ethernet-0/8)# dynamic-bypass
device(config-router-mpls-if-ethernet-0/8-dynamic-bypass)# from 11.11.11.11
