Configuring an SDP

Use the following syntax to create an SDP and select an encapsulation type. Only MPLS encapsulation is supported.

Note:

When you specify the far-end IP address, you are creating the tunnel; you are creating the path from point A to point B. When you configure a distributed service, you must identify an SDP ID. Use the show service sdp command to display the qualifying SDPs.

When specifying MPLS SDP parameters, you must specify an LSP. If an LSP name is specified, RSVP is used for dynamic signaling within the LSP.

LSPs are configured in the config>router>mpls context. See the 7210 SAS-Mxp, R6, R12, S, Sx, T MPLS Guide for configuration and command information.

Use the following syntax to create an MPLS SDP.

config>service>sdp sdp-id [mpls] create
    adv-mtu-override
    description description-string
    far-end ip-address
    keep-alive 
    hello-time seconds
    hold-down-time seconds
    max-drop-count count
    message-length octets
    timeout timeout
    no shutdown

            lsp lsp-name [lsp-name]    (only for MPLS SDPs)
    path-mtu octets
    signaling {off | tldp}
    no shutdown

Example: LSP-signaled MPLS SDP configuration output

The following example shows LSP-signaled MPLS SDP configuration output.
