3Com Switch 8800 Configuration Guide Chapter 36 MPLS Basic Capability Configuration36-1Chapter 36 MPLS Basic Capability Configuration36.1 MPLS Basic Capability OverviewBasic MPLS forwarding functions includes LDP session establishment and LSP pathmaintenance.The typical configuration procedure for enabling basic MPLS functions on a routingswitch is as follows:1) Configure LSR ID2) Enable MPLS3) Enable LDP4) Enter VLAN interface view and enable MPLS and LDP on the interfaceThen the routing switch can provide MPLS forwarding and LDP signaling functions.If you want to modify the default parameters or enable some special functions, forexample, manually creating LSP or explicit route, you can configure according to themethods in configuration list. For some complicated functions, configurationcombination may be required.36.2 MPLS ConfigurationThe following sections describe the required configuration tasks for MPLS basiccapability:z Defining MPLS LSR IDz Enabling MPLS and Entering MPLS ViewThe following sections describe the optional configuration tasks for MPLS basiccapability:z Configuring the Topology-Driven LSP Setup Policyz Configuring Static LSP36.2.1 Defining MPLS LSR IDBefore configuring any other MPLS command, it is necessary to configure LSR ID firstly.This ID is usually in IP address format and must be unique in the domain.Perform the following configuration in the system view.
