The user can configure the bypass LSP setup and hold priority values by using the
priority command. Only those backup paths with a priority less than or equal to the holding-priority of the bypass LSP are able to ride the bypass LSP.
To configure the bypass LSP priority values, complete the following steps.
-
Enable the device foe configuration.
-
Enable the MPLS router.
device(config)# router mpls
-
Configure the bypass LSP with the unique static bypass LSP name. In this example, the name is
my-bypass-lsp.
device(config-router-mpls)# bypass-lsp my-bypass-lsp
-
Configure the
priority command. In this example, the
set-up-priority is configured to six (6) and the
hold-priority is set to four (4).
device(config-router-mpls-bypass-lsp-my-bypass-lsp)# priority 6 4
The following example combines the steps above to configure a static bypass LSP with a unique bypass LSP of
my-bypass-lsp and priority values of six (6) for the
setup-priority and a value of four (4) for the
hold-priority .
device>configure
device(config)# router mpls
device(config-router-mpls)# bypass-lsp my-bypass-lsp
device(config-router-mpls-bypass-lsp-my-bypass-lsp)# priority 6 4
