As mentioned earlier, today I will be discussing about Inter-Area MPLS TE. In this MPLS article we are going to look at MPLS Traffic Engineering. To utilize bandwidth of unused links, to have flexibility in path selection just like previous WAN switching technologies. TE was one of the main drivers and reasons for MPLS invention. This article covers the main steps to create an MPLS frame mode network and to configure traffic-engineering MPLS features to select specific paths over the network with dedicated bandwidth. One stop shop for all transportation news and information. Before we get too far into this I want to point out that MPLS traffic engineering is not supported by all routing protocols. Enable TE functions globally on the router as well as interfaces that are possible candidates to be chosen for TE LSP paths. We saw in a previous post how to set up a basic MPLS TE tunnel, we used explicit and dynamic path which worked very well but explicit path don't scale well and. The FISH topology is a widely used tool for understanding the power of MPLS Traffic-Engineering. €�mpls traffic-eng tunnels”.
