Configuring MPLS RSVP tunnels
How to configure MPLS RSVP tunnels
RSVP-TE must be enabled on interfaces before TE is supported.
- To configure the head-end for an RSVP-TE tunnel, enter the protocols mpls-rsvp tunnels tunnel <name> command. No sessions will be established unless a destination is configured.
vyatta@R1# set protocols mpls-rsvp tunnels tunnel pe1-pe2
- To enable calculation of routes over TE-tunnels by IGPs, enter the protocols mpls-rsvp tunnels tunnel <name> autoroute-announce command. By default, only the route to the tunnel destination is added to the RIB. When enabled, IGPs will treat a tunnel as a single link when calculating routes.

- To configure a fixed metric to be used for the tunnel by the IGP for its shortest path calculations, enter the protocols mpls-rsvp tunnels tunnel <name> autoroute-announce absolute-metric <1..65535> command. The default is the IGP metric. This command is mutually exclusive with the protocols mpls-rsvp tunnels tunnel <name> autoroute-announce relative-metric <-65535..65535> command.

- To configure a metric that is relative to the IGP metric, enter the protocols mpls-rsvp tunnels tunnel <name> autoroute-announce relative-metric <-65535..65535> command. This command is mutually exclusive with the protocols mpls-rsvp tunnels tunnel <name> autoroute-announce absolute-metric <-65535..65535> command.

- To configure the address of the tail end of the tunnel, enter the protocols mpls-rsvp tunnels tunnel <name> destination <x.x.x.x> command. This is required in order to establish any sessions.
vyatta@R1# set protocols mpls-rsvp tunnels tunnel pe1-pe2 destination 4.4.4.4
- To configure the source address of the tunnel, enter the protocols mpls-rsvp tunnels tunnel <name> source <x.x.x.x> command. This defaults to the address configured on the first interface, usually a loopback interface.
