Configuring bypass LSP to address

A bypass LSP must be configured with destination IPv4 to address. The address must be the IP address of any of interface on the router which is reachable from the ingress router. The IP address containing router becomes a merge point for any of the backup paths using the bypass LSP.

To configure a bypass LSP to address, complete the following steps.

  1. Enable the device for configuration.
    device>configure
  2. Enable the MPLS router.
    device(config)# router mpls
  3. Configure the bypass LSP with the unique static bypass LSP name of my-bypass-lsp .
    device(config-router-mpls)# bypass-lsp my-bypass-lsp
  4. Configure the bypass LSP with the destination IPv4 address of 10.20.1.20 .
    device(config-router-mpls-bypass-lsp-my-bypass-lsp)# to 10.20.1.20 

The following example combines the steps above to configure a static bypass LSP with a unique bypass LSP name of my-bypass-lsp and a destination IPv4 address of10.20.1.20 .

device>configure
device(config)# router mpls
device(config-router-mpls)# bypass-lsp my-bypass-lsp
device(config-router-mpls-bypass-lsp-my-bypass-lsp)# to 10.20.1.20
