    3.1 In this Chapter

    Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a label switching technology that provides the ability to set up connection-oriented paths over a connectionless IP network. MPLS facilitates network traffic flow and provides a mechanism to engineer network traffic patterns independently from routing tables. MPLS sets up a specific path for a sequence of packets. The packets are identified by a label inserted into each packet.

    3.2 MPLS

    3.2.1 MPLS Label StackMPLS requires a set of procedures to enhance network layer packets with label stacks which thereby turns them into labeled packets. Routers that support MPLS are known as Label Switching Routers (LSRs). In order to transmit a labeled packet on a particular data link, an LSR must support the encoding technique which, when given a label stack and a network layer packet, produces a labeled packet.

    In MPLS, packets can carry not just one label, but a set of labels in a stack. An LSR can swap the label at the top of the stack, pop the stack, or swap the label and push one or more labels into the stack. The processing of a labeled packet is completely independent of the level of hierarchy. The processing is always based on the top label, without regard for the possibility that some number of other labels may have been above it in the past, or that some number of other labels may be below it at present.

    As described in RFC 3032, MPLS Label Stack Encoding, the label stack is represented as a sequence of label stack entries. Each label stack entry is represented by 4 octets. Figure 1 displays the label placement in a packet.

    Figure 1 Label Placement

    Table 3 Packet Label Field Description

    A stack can carry several labels, organized in a last in/first out order. The top of the label stack appears first in the packet and the bottom of the stack appears last (Figure 2).

    Figure 2 Label Packet Placement

    The label value at the top of the stack is looked up when a labeled packet is received. A successful lookup reveals:

    • the next hop where the packet is to be forwarded• the operation to be performed on the label stack before forwarding.

    In addition, the lookup may reveal outgoing data link encapsulation and other information needed to properly forward the packet.

    An empty label stack can be thought of as an unlabeled packet. An empty label stack has zero (0) depth. The label at the bottom of the stack is referred to as the Level 1 label. The label above it (if it exists) is the Level 2 label, and so on. The label at the top of the stack is referred to as the Level m label.

    Labeled packet processing is independent of the level of hierarchy. Processing is always based on the top label in the stack which includes information about the operations to perform on the label stack of the packet.

    Field Description

    Label This 20-bit field carries the actual value (unstructured) of the label.

    Exp This 3-bit field is reserved for experimental use. It is currently used for Class of Service (CoS).

    S This bit is set to 1 for the last entry (bottom) in the label stack, and 0 for all other label stack entries.

    TTL This 8-bit field is used to encode a TTL value.

    3.2.1.1 Label ValuesPackets traveling along an LSP (see Label Switching Routers on page 21) are identified by its label, the 20-bit, unsigned integer. The range is 0 through 1,048,575. Label values 0-15 are reserved and are defined below as follows:

    • A value of 0 represents the IPv4 Explicit NULL Label. This Label value is legal only at the bottom of the Label stack. It indicates that the Label stack must be popped, and the packet forwarding must be based on the IPv4 header.

    • A value of 1 represents the router alert Label. This Label value is legal anywhere in the Label stack except at the bottom. When a received packet contains this Label value at the top of the Label stack, it is delivered to a local software module for processing. The actual packet forwarding is determined by the Label beneath it in the stack. However, if the packet is further forwarded, the router alert Label should be pushed back onto the Label stack before forwarding. The use of this Label is analogous to the use of the router alert option in IP packets. Since this Label cannot occur at the bottom of the stack, it is not associated with a particular network layer protocol.

    • A value of 3 represents the Implicit NULL Label. This is a Label that a Label Switching Router (LSR) can assign and distribute, but which never actually appears in the encapsulation. When an LSR would otherwise replace the Label at the top of the stack with a new Label, but the new Label is Implicit NULL, the LSR pops the stack instead of doing the replacement. Although this value may never appear in the encapsulation, it needs to be specified in the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP), so a value is reserved.

    • Values 4-15 are reserved for future use.

    ISAM uses labels for MPLS, RSVP-TE and LDP, as well as packet-based services such as VLL and VPLS.

    Label values 16 through 1.048.575 are defined as follows:

    • Label values 16 through 31 are reserved for future use.• Label values 32 through 1.023 are available for static assignment.• Label values 1.024 through 2.047 are reserved for future use.• Label values 2.048 through 4.095 are statically assigned for services.• Label values 32.768 through 131.071 are dynamically assigned for both MPLS

    and services.• Label values 131.072 through 1.048.575 are reserved for future use.

    3.2.2 Label Switching RoutersLSRs perform the label switching function. LSRs perform different functions based on it’s position in an LSP. Routers in an LSP do one of the following:

    • The router at the beginning of an LSP is the ingress label edge router (ILER). The ingress router can encapsulate packets with an MPLS header and forward it to the next router along the path. An LSP can only have one ingress router.

    • A Label Switching Router (LSR) can be any intermediate router in the LSP between the ingress and egress routers. An LSR swaps the incoming label with the outgoing MPLS label and forwards the MPLS packets it receives to the next router in the MPLS path (LSP). An LSP can have 0-253 transit routers.

    • The router at the end of an LSP is the egress label edge router (ELER). The egress router strips the MPLS encapsulation which changes it from an MPLS packet to a data packet, and then forwards the packet to its final destination using information in the forwarding table. Each LSP can have only one egress router. The ingress and egress routers in an LSP cannot be the same router.

    A router in your network can act as an ingress, egress, or transit router for one or more LSPs, depending on your network design.

    An LSP is confined to one IGP area for LSPs using constrained-path. They cannot cross an autonomous system (AS) boundary.

    Static LSPs can cross AS boundaries. The intermediate hops are manually configured so the LSP has no dependence on the IGP topology or a local forwarding table.

    3.2.2.1 LSP TypesThe following are LSP types:

    • Static LSPs:A static LSP specifies a static path. All routers that the LSP traverses must be configured manually with labels. No signaling such as RSVP or LDP is required.

    • Signaled LSP:LSPs are set up using a signaling protocol such as RSVP-TE or LDP. The signaling protocol allows labels to be assigned from an ingress router to the egress router. Signaling is triggered by the ingress routers. Configuration is required only on the ingress router and is not required on intermediate routers. Signaling also facilitates path selection.

    There are two signaled LSP types:

    • Explicit-path LSPs:MPLS uses RSVP-TE to set up explicit path LSPs. The hops within the LSP are configured manually. The intermediate hops must be configured as either strict or loose meaning that the LSP must take either a direct path from the previous hop

  • FD 100/320 Gbps NT and FX NT IHub MPLS Guide

    Multiprotocol Label Switching

    Issue: 07 3HH-11987-AAAA-TQZZA 27

    router to this router (strict) or can traverse through other routers (loose).You can control how the path is set up. They are similar to static LSPs but require less configuration. See section Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) in the RSVP chapter.

    • Constrained-path LSPs:The intermediate hops of the LSP are dynamically assigned. A constrained path LSP relies on the Constrained Shortest Path First (CSPF) routing algorithm to find a path which satisfies the constraints for the LSP. In turn, CSPF relies on the topology database provided by the extended IGP such as OSPF or IS-IS. Once the path is found by CSPF, RSVP uses the path to request the LSP set up. CSPF calculates the shortest path based on the constraints provided such as bandwidth, class of service, and specified hops.

    If fast reroute is configured, the ingress router signals the routers downstream. Each downstream router sets up a detour for the LSP. If a downstream router does not support fast reroute, the request is ignored and the router continues to support the LSP. This can cause some of the detours to fail, but otherwise the LSP is not impacted.

    Hop-limit parameter specifies the maximum number of hops that an LSP can traverse, including the ingress and egress routers. An LSP is not set up if the hop limit is exceeded. The hop count is set to 255 by default for the primary and secondary paths. It is set to 16 by default for a detour LSP path.

    3.2.2.2 Detour LSPsThe ISAM does not support bypass LSPs but supports detour LSPs.

    The behavior of an LSP at an ingress LER with both fast reroute and a standby LSP path configured is as follows:

    • When a downstream detour becomes active at a point of local repair (PLR):The ingress LER switches to the standby LSP path. If the primary LSP path is repaired subsequently at the PLR, the LSP will switch back to the primary path. If the standby goes down, the LSP is switched back to the primary, even though it is still on the detour at the PLR. If the primary goes down at the ingress while the LSP is on the standby, the detour at the ingress is cleaned up and for one-to-one detours a "path tear" is sent for the detour path. In other words, the detour at the ingress does not protect the standby. If and when the primary LSP is again successfully re-signaled, the ingress detour state machine will be restarted.

    • When the primary fails at the ingress:The LSP switches to the detour path. If a standby is available then LSP would switch to standby on expiration of hold-timer. If hold-timer is disabled then switchover to standby would happen immediately. On successful global revert of primary path, the LSP would switch back to the primary path.

    • Admin groups are not taken into account when creating detours for LSPs.

    3.2.3 Advanced MPLS/RSVP Features

    3.2.3.1 LSP Path ChangeThe command tools perform router mpls update-path {lsp lsp-name path current-path-name new-path new-path-name} instructs MPLS to replace the path of the primary or secondary LSP.

    The primary or secondary LSP path is indirectly identified via the current-path-name value. In existing implementation, the same path name cannot be used more than once in a given LSP name.

    This command is also supported on an SNMP interface.

    This command applies to both CSPF LSP and to a non-CSPF LSP. However, it will only be honored when the specified current-path-name has the adaptive option enabled. The adaptive option can be enabled the LSP level or at the path level.

    The new path must be first configured in CLI or provided via SNMP. The CLI command configure router mpls path path-name is used to enter the path.

    The command fails if any of the following conditions are satisfied:

    • The specified current-path-name of this LSP does not have the adaptive option enabled.

    • The specified new-path-name value does not correspond to a previously defined path.

    • The specified new-path-name value exists but is being used by any path of the same LSP, including this one.

    When the command is executed, MPLS performs the following procedures:

    • MPLS performs a single MBB attempt to move the LSP path to the new path.• If the MBB is successful, MPLS updates the new path.

    • MPLS writes the corresponding NHLFE in the data path if this path is the current backup path for the primary.

    • If the current path is the active LSP path, it will update the path, write the new NHLFE in the data path, which will cause traffic to switch to the new path.

    • If the MBB is not successful, the path retains it current value.• The update-path MBB has the same priority as the manual re-signal MBB.

    3.3 MPLS Service Usage

    ISAM with MPLS enables service providers to deliver virtual private networks (VPNs) and Internet access using MPLS tunnels.

    3.3.1 Service Distribution PathsA service distribution path (SDP) acts as a logical way of directing traffic from one ISAM router to another through a uni-directional (one-way) service tunnel. The SDP terminates at the far-end ISAM router which directs packets to the correct service egress service access point (SAP) on that device. All services mapped to an SDP use the same transport encapsulation type defined for the SDP (MPLS).

    For information about service transport tunnels, refer to the Service Distribution Paths (SDPs) section in the FD 100/320Gbps NT and FX NT IHub Services Guide.

    3.4.1 Configuration NotesThis section describes MPLS and RSVP caveats:

    • Interfaces must already be configured in the configure>router>interface context before they can be specified in MPLS.

    • A router interface must be specified in the configure>router>mpls context in order to apply it or modify parameters in the configure>router>rsvp context.

    Note — GRE encapsulation is not supported.

    3.5 Configuring MPLS and RSVP with CLI

    This section provides information to configure MPLS and RSVP using the Command Line Interface (CLI).

    Topics in this section include:

    • MPLS Configuration Overview• LSPs• Paths• Router Interface• Choosing the Signaling Protocol

    • Basic MPLS Configuration• Common Configuration Tasks• MPLS Configuration Management Tasks

    3.5.1 MPLS Configuration OverviewMultiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) enables routers to forward traffic based on a simple label embedded into the packet header. A router examines the label to determine the next hop for the packet, saving time for router address lookups to the next node when forwarding packets.

    In order to implement MPLS, the following entities must be configured:

    • LSPs• Paths• Router Interface

    3.5.1.1 LSPsTo configure MPLS-signaled label-switched paths (LSPs), an LSP must run from an ingress router to an egress router. Configure only the ingress router and configure LSPs to allow the software to make the forwarding decisions or statically configure some or all routers in the path. The LSP is set up by Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP), through RSVP signaling messages. The ISAM automatically manages label values. Labels that are automatically assigned have values ranging from 1,024 through 1,048,575 (see Label Values).

    A static LSP is a manually set up LSP where the nexthop IP address and the outgoing label are explicitly specified.

    3.5.1.2 PathsTo configure signaled LSPs, you must first create one or more named paths on the ingress router. For each path, the transit routers (hops) in the path are specified.

    3.5.1.3 Router InterfaceAt least one router interface and one system interface must be defined in the configure>router>interface context in order to configure MPLS on an interface.

    3.5.1.4 Choosing the Signaling ProtocolIf only static label switched paths are used in your configurations, then you must manually define the paths through the MPLS network. Label mappings and actions configured at each hop must be specified. You do not need to enable RSVP or LDP if you are configuring static LSPs.

    If dynamic LSP signaling is implemented in your network, then one of the two supported signaling protocols, RSVP or LDP, must be specified. Enable signaling protocols only on the links where the functionality is required.

    In order to implement MPLS, the following entities must be enabled:

    • MPLS must be enabled on all routers that are part of an LSP.• RSVP or LDP must be enabled on the same routers.

    When MPLS is enabled and either RSVP or LDP is also enabled, MPLS uses RSVP or LDP to set up the configured LSPs. For example, when you configure an LSP with both MPLS and RSVP running, RSVP initiates a session for the LSP. RSVP uses the local router as the RSVP session sender and the LSP destination as the RSVP session receiver. When the RSVP session is created, the LSP is set up on the path created by the session. If the session is not successfully created, RSVP notifies MPLS; MPLS can then either initiate backup paths or retry the initial path.

    3.5.2 Basic MPLS ConfigurationThis section provides information to configure MPLS and configuration examples of common configuration tasks. To enable MPLS on ISAM, you must configure at least one MPLS interface. The other MPLS configuration parameters are optional. The following displays an example of an MPLS configuration.
