Your configured LSP name
Cisco: Ensure that this is configured on
ALL interface that will participate in TE
Will show when LSP can't come up or is in
the process of being configured … ie, J2 not
set up to received LSP or Cisco interface not
configured (ospf failed stuck in EXCH mode
etc)
We will configure LSP J1-J2 destination 10.0.0.4/32 (loopback for J2).
We will specify and “explicit route” to take: it is primary and called
J1-R1-R2-J2. The “next-hop” is specified in the explicit-route. Other
Junos options include “Strict/Loose”. Strict means, directly adjacent.
You can config LSP w/o “backup”/secondary route.
CSPF understood
that these routes
were “STRICT”

The Cisco portion is also quite intelligent and it will tell us what LSP are
transiting the router. This is because it is ALSO involved in passing the
signals for the configured LSP on Junos.

Note:

Tells you which direction the LSP is
heading. Additional info to help you track
it down is Src IP and Dst IP
Same applies to LSP J2-J1 which is
coming from J2. PS: I configured on both
ends. The same will be observed on
Cisco R2
On Junos do monitor label-switch-path
In the next slide we will create some failure on Cisco R2 and see
how the LSP perform .. switch path. We have NOT configured fast-
reroute OR adaptive. So it will take same time to fail. Just a note.
If your LSP flaps a lot.. the “instance” will
accumulate/increment and the “Tun_Id”
will constantly change. This is a sign that
your LSP path is not so stable.
Note: Sometimes a LSR transit
router like R1 can tell you ALOT...
more then the router (J1 or J2)
which is originating the LSP Tun.
Note: This document is written
over the course of a few days,
so the Tun_Id & Tun_Instance
won't “add up”.
Also do show mpls forwarding-
table to see Labels transiting.

> to 20.0.0.2 via em0.0, label-switched-path J1-J2
[OSPF/10] 00:02:54, metric 2
Distance of “7” is best!
RSVP is in route table inet.3. Basically
whatever routes learned from MPLS will
be in this table. We will config MPLS-
LDP Tunnels in the LSP and have a look
later. If LSP goes now, regular routing
via OSPF will take over...??

Study the setup now. The Big Question
is … how come traceroute not
displaying any labels? Should it display
labels?
Is this behavior expected or not?
Because there are NO labels, are the
routers using regular OSPF to route
traffic?
We are taking the
“long” route now...
Important to start
asking yourself Q
about routing now...
does LSP route /
FORWARD traffic?

Short Answer:
1. Go to every Cisco box and turn “ mpls ip”
2. Run traceroute from J1 to ALL loop back, observe for labels …
3. Create outage on R2@FA1/1.
4. Re-perform step 2 and observe again! ANSWER!

I think this means
“Strict” / direct adj
Final Note: It is MPLS-IP/LDP that supplies the labels. In this
small network, most of the time LSR will POP labels... this is why
we need to create outage on R2@FA1/1 and create some physical
“distance” between J1 and R2

Junos Configs on J2
Note: Many other options on Junos to experiment with. For
example, when LSP switch because of outage, by default it
does not reconfigure itself when the outage recovers. You can
use “timers” here to “optimize-aggressive” and the LSP will go
back to the primary configured PATH.
Fast-Reroute is another option. Usually DON'T configure a
primary & secondary path. Your LSP should ONLY have a
single auto-path generation from CSPF. When outage
happens, let CSPF do the work for you. Fast-Reroute is like
non-stop-forwarding. Even if the path appears to be GONE,
continue to forward traffic until something new comes up!
Another option is “adaptive” which is more graceful … I think.
Other options is a “stand-by” route which can be configured or
if you like to “control” bandwidth, least-filled is nice also. Ie, if
there are two path with the same “cost”, use the one with less
bandwidth. Small problem here … traffic spikes! Enjoy!
