Command Default
A behavior mode is not specified for the TPE.
Command Modes
Layer 2 pseudowire routing (config-l2_pw_rtg)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
The terminating-pe command is used in Layer 2 pseudowire routing configuration mode. To enter Layer 2 pseudowire routing configuration mode, use the l2 pseudowire routing command.
Active and Passive PEs in an L2VPN VPLS Inter-AS Option B Configuration
A TPE terminates a multisegment pseudowire. By default, the TPEs on both ends of a multisegmented pseudowire are in active mode. The L2VPN VPLS Inter-AS Option B feature requires that one of the TPEs be in passive mode. The system determines which PE is the passive TPE based on a comparison of the Target Attachment Individual Identifier (TAII) received from Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and the Source Attachment Individual Identifier (SAII) of the local router. The TPE with the numerically higher identifier assumes the active role.
When you are configuring the PEs for the L2VPN VPLS Inter-AS Option B feature, use the terminating-pe tie-breaker command to negotiate the mode of the TPE. Then use the mpls ldp discovery targeted-hello accept command to ensure that a passive TPE can accept Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) sessions from the LDP peers.
Examples
In the following example, the terminating-pe command has been used to configure the TPE to negotiate an active or passive role:

Command Modes
Privileged EXEC (#)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Use the trace mpls command to validate, test, or troubleshoot IPv4 LDP LSPs and IPv4 Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) TE tunnels.
UDP Destination Address Usage
The destination address is a valid 127/8 address. You can specify a single address or a range of numbers from 0.0.0 to x.y.z, where x, y, and z are numbers from 0 to 255 and correspond to the 127.x.y.z destination address.
The MPLS echo request destination address in the UDP packet is not used to forward the MPLS packet to the destination router. The label stack that is used to forward the echo request routes the MPLS packet to the destination router. The 127/8 address guarantees that the packets are routed to the localhost (the default loopback address of the router processing the address) if the UDP packet destination address is used for forwarding.
In addition, the destination address is used to adjust load balancing when the destination address of the IP payload is used for load balancing.
Time-to-Live Keyword Usage
The time-to-live value indicates the maximum number of hops a packet should take to reach its destination. The value in the TTL field in a packet is decremented by 1 each time the packet travels through a router.
For MPLS LSP ping, the TTL is a value after which the packet is discarded and an MPLS echo reply is sent back to the originating router.
For MPLS Multipath LSP Traceroute, the TTL is a maximum time-to-live value and is used to discover the number of downstream hops to the destination router. MPLS LSP Traceroute incrementally increases the TTL value in its MPLS echo requests (TTL = 1, 2, 3, 4, ...) to accomplish this.
Pseudowire Usage
The following keywords are not available with the trace mpls pseudowire command:
•

Usage Guidelines
Use the trace mpls multipath command to discover all possible paths between an egress and ingress router in multivendor networks that use IPv4 load balancing at the transit routers.
Use the destination address-start address-end keyword and arguments to specify a valid 127/8 address. You have the option to specify a single x.y.z-address or a range of numbers from 0.0.0 to x.y.z, where x, y, and z are numbers from 0 to 255 and correspond to the 127.x.y.z destination address. The MPLS echo request destination address in the UDP packet is not used to forward the MPLS packet to the destination router. The label stack that is used to forward the echo request routes the MPLS packet to the destination router. The 127/8 address guarantees that the packets are routed to the localhost (the default loopback address of the router processing the address) if the UDP packet destination address is used for forwarding. In addition, the destination address is used to adjust load balancing when the destination address of the IP payload is used for load balancing.

{on | off}]no traffic-engineering route filter-number interface [preference number] [loop-prevention
{on | off}]Syntax Description
Defaults
preference: 1
loop-prevention: onCommand Modes
Router configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
The traffic engineering process is used to decide if a configured traffic engineering route should be installed in the forwarding table.
The first step is to determine if the route is up. If the route is enabled, the LSP tunnel interface is up, the loop prevention check is either disabled or passed, and the traffic engineering route is up.
If multiple routes for the same filter are up, a route is selected based on administrative preference.
If loop prevention is enabled, metrics are solicited from the tunnel tail, and the loop prevention algorithm is run on the result. For a discussion of the loop prevention algorithm, see the show ip traffic-engineering metrics command.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure a traffic engineering filter and a traffic engineering route for that filter through an LSP-encapsulated tunnel for the traffic engineering routing process:

tunnel mpls traffic-eng affinity
To configure an affinity (the properties the tunnel requires in its links) for a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) traffic engineering tunnel, use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng affinity command in interface configuration mode. To disable the MPLS traffic engineering tunnel affinity, use the no form of this command.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng affinity properties [mask mask value]
no tunnel mpls traffic-eng affinity properties [mask mask value]
Syntax Description
Defaults
properties: 0X00000000
mask value: 0X0000FFFFCommand Modes
Interface configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
The affinity determines the attributes of the links that this tunnel will use (that is, the attributes for which the tunnel has an affinity). The attribute mask determines which link attribute the router should check. If a bit in the mask is 0, an attribute value of a link or that bit is irrelevant. If a bit in the mask is 1, the attribute value of a link and the required affinity of the tunnel for that bit must match.
A tunnel can use a link if the tunnel affinity equals the link attributes and the tunnel affinity mask.
Any properties set to 1 in the affinity should also be 1 in the mask. In other words, affinity and mask should be set as follows:
tunnel_affinity = (tunnel_affinity and tunnel_affinity_mask)Examples
The following example shows how to set the affinity of the tunnel to 0x0101 mask 0x303:
Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng affinity 0x0101 mask 0x303Related Commands

Command Default
If you do not enter this command, manually-configured static routes are required.
Command Modes
Interface configuration (config-if)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
The tunnel mpls traffic-eng autoroute destination command prevents you from having to manually configure static routes. Use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng autoroute destination command because interarea TE tunnels cross areas.
For interarea tunnels, the tunnel mpls traffic-eng autoroute announce command and the tunnel mpls traffic-eng forwarding-adjacency command are not operational.
Examples
The following example specifies that tunnel 103 has autoroute destination enabled:
Router(config)# interface Tunnel103 Router(config-if)# ip unnumbered Loopback0 Router(config-if)# tunnel destination 10.1.0.3Router(config-if)# tunnel mode mpls traffic-eng Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng autoroute destination Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option 1 explicit name 111-103Related Commands
tunnel mpls traffic-eng auto-bw
To configure a tunnel for automatic bandwidth adjustment and to control the manner in which the bandwidth for a tunnel is adjusted, use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng auto-bw command in interface configuration mode. To disable automatic bandwidth adjustment for a tunnel, use the no form of this command.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng auto-bw [collect-bw] [frequency seconds] [max-bw number] [min-bw number]
no tunnel mpls traffic-eng auto-bw
Syntax Description
Command Default
You cannot control the manner in which the bandwidth for a tunnel is adjusted.
Command Modes
Interface configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
If you enter the command with no optional keywords or arguments, automatic bandwidth adjustment for the tunnel is enabled, with adjustments made every 24 hours and with no constraints on the bandwidth adjustment made.
To sample the bandwidth used by a tunnel without automatically adjusting it, specify the collect-bw keyword in the tunnel mpls traffic-eng auto-bw command.
If you do not specify the collect-bw keyword, the tunnel's bandwidth is adjusted to the largest average output rate sampled for the tunnel since the last bandwidth adjustment for the tunnel was made. If you do not specify the collect-bw keyword but you do enter some but not all of the other keywords, the defaults for the options not entered are: frequency, every 24hours; min-bw, unconstrained (0); and max-bw, unconstrained.
To constrain the bandwidth adjustment that can be made to a tunnel, use the max-bw or min-bw keyword and specify the permitted maximum allowable bandwidth or minimum allowable bandwidth, respectively.
The following rules apply to adjusting bandwidth on a tunnel:
•
•
•
•
The no form of the tunnel mpls traffic-eng auto-bw command disables bandwidth adjustment for the tunnel and restores the configured bandwidth for the tunnel bandwidth where "configured bandwidth" is determined as follows:

tunnel mpls traffic-eng backup-bw
To specify what types of label-switched paths (LSPs) can use a backup tunnel or whether the backup tunnel should provide bandwidth protection, and if so, how much, use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng backup-bw command in interface configuration mode.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng backup-bw {kbps | [sub-pool {kbps | Unlimited}] [global-pool {kbps | Unlimited}]} {kbps | [class-type {kbps | Unlimited}]
Syntax Description
Command Default
If neither the sub-pool nor global-pool keyword is entered, any LSP (those using bandwidth from the subpool or global pool) can use this backup tunnel.
Command Modes
Interface configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
If both the sub-pool and global-pool keywords are specified, sub-pool keyword must be specified first on the command line. For example, tunnel mpls traffic-eng backup-bw sub-pool 100 global-pool Unlimited is legal, but it is not legal to specify tunnel mpls traffic-eng backup-bw global-pool Unlimited sub-pool 100.
To limit the number of both subpool and global pool LSPs, enter the tunnel mpls traffic-eng backup-bw sub-pool kbps global-pool kbps command.
The Unlimited keyword cannot be used for both the subpool and global pool.
Examples
In the following example, backup tunnel 1 is to be used only by LSPs that take their bandwidth from the global pool. The backup tunnel does not provide bandwidth protection. Backup tunnel 2 is to be used only by LSPs that take their bandwidth from the subpool. Backup tunnel 2 provides bandwidth protection for up to 1000 units.

tunnel mpls traffic-eng fast-reroute
To enable a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) traffic engineering (TE) tunnel to use an established backup tunnel in the event of a link or node failure, use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng fast-reroute command in interface configuration mode. To disable this capability, use the no form of this command.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng fast-reroute [bw-protect] [node-protect]
no tunnel mpls traffic-eng fast-reroute
Syntax Description
Command Default
There is no backup bandwidth protection.
Command Modes
Interface configuration (config-if)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
If you specify the bw-protect keyword, all path messages for the tunnel's label switched path (LSP) are sent with the bandwidth protection bit set.
After you enter the command, with or without the bw-protect keyword, the requested action or change propagates along all hops of the LSP. Midpoint routers that are the points of local repairs (PLRs) for the LSP take the appropriate action based on whether the bit was just set or cleared. If the bit was just set or cleared, a new backup tunnel selection happens for the LSP because the LSP now has a higher or lower priority in the backup tunnel selection process.
To unconfigure only backup bandwidth protection, enter the tunnel mpls traffic-eng fast-reroute command.
To disable an MPLS TE tunnel from using an established backup tunnel in the event of a link or node failure, enter the no form of the command.
Examples
In the following example, backup bandwidth protection is enabled:

Interface configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng forwarding-adjacency command with the isis metric command to avoid inefficient forwarding behavior. Ensure that any nodes traversed by the TE tunnel being advertised do not consider the TE tunnel as part of the shortest path to the destination.
Note
Examples
In the following example, the holdtime is set to 10,000 milliseconds:
Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng forwarding-adjacency holdtime 10000In the following example, the holdtime defaults to 0:
Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng forwarding-adjacencyRelated Commands
tunnel mpls traffic-eng interface down delay
To force a tunnel to go down as soon as the headend router detects that the label-switched path (LSP) is down, use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng interface down delay command in interface configuration mode. To disable this feature, use the no form of this command.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng interface down delay time
no tunnel mpls traffic-eng interface down delay time
Syntax Description
Defaults
There is a delay before the tunnel goes down.
Command Modes
Interface configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
You cannot specify both the tunnel mpls traffic-eng interface down delay command and the tunnel mpls traffic-eng forwarding-adjacency command. The first command that you enter would prevent the implementation of the other command and would cause the system to display error messages.
Examples
In the following example, if the headend router detects that a link has goes down on tunnel 1000, the tunnel goes down immediately.
Router(config)# interface tunnel 1000Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng interface down delay 0tunnel mpls traffic-eng load-share
To determine load-sharing among two or more Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) traffic engineering (TE) tunnels that begin at the same router and go to an identical destination, use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng load-share command in interface configuration mode. To disable this feature, use the no form of this command.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng load-share value
no tunnel mpls traffic-eng load-share value
Syntax Description
value
A value from which the head-end router will calculate the proportion of traffic to be sent down each of the parallel tunnels. Range is from 1 to 1000000.
Defaults
No default behavior or values.
Command Modes
Interface configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Each parallel tunnel must be configured with this command. Specify a value to indicate the proportion of total traffic you want to be allocated into each individual tunnel. For example, if there are to be three parallel tunnels, and you want Tunnel1 to carry half of the traffic and the other two tunnels to carry one-quarter, you should enter the following values:
•
•
•
The ability to divide bandwidth in unequal amounts across traffic engineering tunnels has a finite granularity. This granularity varies by platform, with both hardware and software limits. If load-sharing is configured so that it exceeds the available granularity, the following message is displayed:
@FIB-4-UNEQUAL: Range of unequal path weightings too large for prefix x.x.x.x/y. Some available paths may not be used.To eliminate this message, it is recommended that you change the requested bandwidth or loadshare.
Examples
In the following example, three tunnels are configured, with the first tunnel receiving half of the traffic and the other two tunnels receiving one-quarter:

tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option
To configure a path option for a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) traffic engineering (TE) tunnel, use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option command in interface configuration mode. To disable this function, use the no form of this command.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option {number {dynamic [attributes lsp-attributes | bandwidth {kbps | subpool kbps} [lockdown] | lockdown [bandwidth {kbps | subpool kbps}] | explicit {identifier path-number | name path-name} [attributes lsp-attributes [verbatim]] | bandwidth {kbps | subpool kbps} [lockdown] [verbatim]] | lockdown bandwidth {kbps | subpool kbps} [verbatim] | verbatim bandwidth {kbps | subpool kbps} [lockdown]}}
no tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option number
Syntax Description
Command Default
No path option for an MPLS TE tunnel is configured.
Command Modes
Interface configuration (config-if)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
You can configure multiple path options for a single tunnel. For example, there can be several explicit path options and a dynamic option for one tunnel. Path setup preference is for lower (not higher) numbers, so option 1 is preferred.
If you specify the dynamic keyword, the software checks both the physical bandwidth of the interface and the available TE bandwidth to be sure that the requested amount of bandwidth does not exceed the physical bandwidth of any link. To oversubscribe links, you must specify the explicit keyword. If you use the explicit keyword, the software only checks how much bandwidth is available on the link for TE; the amount of bandwidth you configure is not limited to how much physical bandwidth is available on the link.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure the tunnel to use a named IP explicit path:
Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option 1 explicit name testRelated Commands
tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option protect
To configure a secondary path option for a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) traffic engineering (TE) tunnel, use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option protect command in interface configuration mode. To disable this function, use the no form of this command.

no tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option protect number
Syntax Description
Command Default
The MPLS TE tunnel does not have a secondary path option.
Command Modes
Interface configuration (config-if)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Cisco recommends that the primary path options that are being protected use explicit paths.
Calculation of a dynamic path for the path-protected LSP is not available. When configuring the IP explicit path for the path-protected LSP, choose hops that minimize the number of links and nodes shared with the protected primary path option.
If the path option being protected uses an attribute list, configure path protection to use the same attribute list.
If the path option being protected uses bandwidth override, configure path protection to use bandwidth override with the same values.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure the tunnel to use a named IP-explicit path:
Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option protect 1 explicit name testThe following example shows how to configure path option 1 to use an LSP attribute list identified with the numeral 1:
Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option protect 1 explicit name test attributes 1The following example shows how to configure bandwidth for a path option to override the bandwidth configured on the tunnel:
Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option protect 3 explicit name test bandwidth 0The following example shows how to configure path protection on a standby LSP:
Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option 10 explicit name pri-pathRouter(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option protect 10 explicit name alt-pathRelated CommandsEvery path option that needs to be protected must have its protection path configured immediately after the path option is configured, as shown in the above example.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-selection metric
To specify the metric type to use for path calculation for a tunnel, use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-selection metric command in interface configuration mode. To remove the specified metric type, use the no form of this command.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-selection metric {igp | te}
no tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-selection metric
Syntax Description
Defaults
The default is the te metric.
Command Modes

Usage Guidelines
The metric type to be used for path calculation for a given tunnel is determined as follows:
•
•
•
Examples
The following commands specify that the igp metric should be used when you are calculating the path for Tunnel102:
Router(config)# interface tunnel102Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-selection metric igpRelated Commands
mpls traffic-eng path-selection metric
Specifies the metric type to use for path calculation for TE tunnels for which no metric has been explicitly configured.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng priority
To configure the setup and reservation priority for Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) traffic engineering (TE) tunnel, use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng priority command in interface configuration mode. To remove the specified setup and reservation priority, use the no form of this command.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng priority setup-priority [hold-priority]
no tunnel mpls traffic-eng priority setup-priority [hold-priority]
Syntax Description
Command Default
By default, the setup priority is 7. The value of hold priority is the same as the value of setup priority.
Command Modes
Interface configuration (config-if)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
When an LSP is being signaled and an interface does not currently have enough bandwidth available for that LSP, the call admission software preempts lower-priority LSPs so that the new LSP can be admitted. (LSPs are preempted if that allows the new LSP to be admitted.)
The new LSP's priority is its setup priority and the existing LSP's priority is its hold priority. The two priorities enables the signaling of an LSP with a low setup priority (so that the LSP does not preempt other LSPs on setup) but a high hold priority (so that the LSP is not preempted after it is established).
Setup priority and hold priority are typically configured to be equal, and setup priority cannot be better (numerically smaller) than the hold priority.
Examples
The following example shows how to configure a tunnel with a setup and hold priority of 1:
Router(config-if)# tunnel mpls traffic-eng priority 1 1Related Commands
tunnel mode mpls traffic-eng
Sets the mode of a tunnel to MPLS for traffic engineering.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng record-route
To include the interface address for the label switched path (LSP) in the Record Route Object (RRO) for an RESV message, use the tunnel mpls traffic-eng record-route command in interface configuration mode. To remove the interface address for the LSP in the RRO for the RESV message, use the no form of this command.
tunnel mpls traffic-eng record-route
no tunnel mpls traffic-eng record-route
Syntax Description
This command has no arguments or keywords.
Command Default
By default, this command is disabled. The interface addresses for the LSP are not included in the RRO of the RESVmessage.The record-route option is automatically enabled when the tunnel mpls traffic-eng fast-reroute command for the fast-reroute (FRR) feature is enabled at the headend.
Command Modes
Interface configuration
Command History
12.0(5)S
This command was introduced.
12.0(7)T
This command was integrated into Cisco IOS Release 12.0(7)T.
Usage Guidelines
The RRO has two functions. It records the route of the LSP that can be used in loop prevention, and it records labels that are used by FRR.
The contents of a RRO are a series of variable-length data items called subobjects.
If record route is enabled, the RRO contains details in the following order: node-ID, interface address, and label.
Examples
The following example shows how to include the interface address using the tunnel mpls traffic-eng record-route command:

vpn id
To set or update a Virtual Private Network (VPN) ID on a VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) instance, use the vpn id command in VRF configuration mode.
vpn id oui:vpn-index
Syntax Description
Defaults
The VPN ID is not set.
Command Modes
VRF configuration
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Each VRF configured in a provider edge (PE) router can have a VPN ID. Use the same VPN ID for the PE routers that belong to the same VPN. Make sure the VPN ID is unique for each VPN in the service provider network.
Once configured, a VPN ID cannot be removed, however, it can be changed. To change the VPN ID, issue the command again. The new ID overwrites the existing ID.
Examples
The following example shows how to assign the VPN ID of 0000a100003f6c to a VRF called vpn1:
Router(config)# ip vrf vpn1Router(config-vrf)# vpn id a1:3f6cRelated Commands
show ip vrf detail
Displays all the VRFs on a router.
show ip vrf id
Displays all the VPN IDs that are configured in the router and their associated VRF names and VRF RDs.
vrf definition
To configure a Virtual Private Network (VPN) routing and forwarding (VRF) routing table instance and enter VRF configuration mode, use the vrf definition command in global configuration mode. To remove a VRF routing table, use the no form of this command.
vrf definition vrf-name
no vrf definition vrf-name
Syntax Description
Command Default
No VRFs are defined.
No import or export lists are associated with a VRF.
No route maps are associated with a VRF.Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Use the vrf definition command to give a VRF a name and to enter VRF configuration mode. Once the router is in VRF configuration mode, use the rd command to give the VRF a route distinguisher (RD). The rd command creates the routing and forwarding tables and associates the RD with the VRF instance named in the vrf-name argument.
Users can configure shared route targets (import and export) between IPv4 and IPv6. This feature is useful in a migration scenario, where IPv4 policies already are configured and IPv6 policies should be the same as the IPv4 policies. You can configure separate route-target policies for IPv4 and IPv6 VPNs in address family configuration mode. Enter address family configuration mode from VRF configuration mode.
In VRF configuration mode, you can also associate a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) context with the named VRF and configure or update a VPN ID.
The vrf definition default command can be used to configure a VRF name that is a NULL value until a default VRF name can be configured. This is typically before any VRF related AAA commands are configured.
Examples
The following example assigns the name vrf1 to a VRF, enters VRF configuration mode, and configures a route distinguisher, 100:20:
Router(config)# vrf definition vrf1Router(config-vrf)# rd 100:20Related Commands
vrf forwarding
To associate a Virtual Private Network (VPN) routing and forwarding (VRF) instance with an interface or subinterface, use the vrf forwarding command in interface configuration mode. To disassociate a VRF from an interface, use the no form of this command.

no vrf forwarding vrf-name
Syntax Description
Command Default
The default for an interface is the global routing table.
Command Modes
Interface configuration (config-if)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
Use the vrf forwarding command to associate an interface with a VRF. When the interface is bound to a VRF, previously configured IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are removed, and they must be reconfigured.
Examples
The following example shows how to associate a VRF named site1 to serial interface 0/0 and configure an IPv6 and an IPv4 address:
interface Serial0/0vrf forwarding site1ipv6 address 2001:100:1:1000::72b/64ip address 10.11.11.1 255.255.255.0Related Commands

Usage Guidelines
If a VRF table is removed by using the no ip vrf vrf-name command in global configuration mode, all configurations associated with that VRF will be removed including those configurations added with the vrf selection source command.
Examples
The following example shows how to populate the VRF Selection table vpn1 with a source IP network address 10.0.0.0 and the IP mask 255.0.0.0, which would forward any packets with the source IP address 10.0.0.0 into the VRF instance vpn1:

vrf upgrade-cli
To upgrade a Virtual Private Network (VPN) routing and forwarding (VRF) instance or all VRFs on the router to support multiple address families (multi-AFs) for the same VRF, use the vrf upgrade-cli command in global configuration mode.
vrf upgrade-cli multi-af-mode {common-policies | non-common-policies} [vrf vrf-name] [force]
Syntax Description
Command Default
If you do not enter the name of a specific single-protocol VRF, all VRFs defined on the router are upgraded to the multi-AF VRF configuration.
Command Modes
Global configuration (config)
Command History
Usage Guidelines
The vrf upgrade-cli command is used to upgrade a specified single-protocol VRF (IPv4-only VRF) configuration or all single-protocol VRF configurations on the router to a multiprotocol VRF that supports multi-AF configuration.
The upgrade is automatic and does not require any further configuration. After you enter the vrf upgrade-cli command, the single-protocol VRF configuration is lost when you save the configuration to NVRAM. A multiprotocol VRF configuration is saved.
If your configuration requires that all route-target policies (import, export, both) apply to all address families, you enter the vrf upgrade-cli multi-af-mode common-policies command. If your configuration requires that these policies apply to IPv4 VPNs only, enter the vrf upgrade-cli multi-af-mode non-common-policies command.
After the upgrade to a multiprotocol VRF is complete, you can edit the VRF only with multiprotocol VRF configuration commands.
Examples
The following example shows how to upgrade a single-protocol VRF configuration named vrf1 to a multi-AF VRF configuration and apply the common policies of vrf1 to all address families defined for the VRF:
Router# configure terminalEnter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.!Router(config)# vrf upgrade-cli multi-af-mode common-policies vrf vrf1You are about to upgrade to the multi-AF VRF syntax commands. You will lose any IPv6 address configured on interfaces belonging to upgraded VRFs. Are you sure ?

xconnect
To bind an attachment circuit to a pseudowire, and to configure an Any Transport over MPLS (AToM) static pseudowire, use the xconnect command in one of the supported configuration modes. To restore the default values, use the no form of this command.

Syntax Description
Command Default
The attachment circuit is not bound to the pseudowire.
Command Modes
Connect configuration
Interface configuration (config-if)
l2transport configuration (for ATM)Command History
Usage Guidelines
The use of the xconnect command and the interface configuration mode bridge-group commands is not supported on the same physical interface.
The combination of the peer-ip-address and vcid arguments must be unique on the router. Each xconnect configuration must have a unique combination of peer-ip-address and vcid configuration.
Note
The same vcid value that identifies the attachment circuit must be configured using the xconnect command on the local and remote PE router. The VC ID creates the binding between a pseudowire and an attachment circuit.
With the introduction of VPLS Autodiscovery in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB, the remote router ID need not be the LDP router ID. The address you specify can be any IP address on the peer, as long as it is reachable. When VPLS Autodiscovery discovers peer routers for the VPLS, the peer router addresses might be any routable address.
Note
For L2TPv3, to manually configure the settings used in the attachment circuit, use the manual keyword in the xconnect command. This configuration is called a static session. The router is placed in xconnect configuration mode, and you can then configure the following options:
•
•
•
•
For L2TPv3, if you do not enter the encapsulation l2tpv3 manual keywords in the xconnect command, the data encapsulation type for the L2TPv3 session is taken from the encapsulation type configured for the pseudowire class specified with the pseudowire-class pw-class-name command.
The pw-class keyword with the pw-class-name value binds the xconnect configuration of an attachment circuit to a specific pseudowire class. In this way, the pseudowire class configuration serves as a template that contains settings used by all attachment circuits bound to it with the xconnect command.
Software prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SRB configured pseudowires dynamically using Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) or another directed control protocol to exchange the various parameters required for these connections. In environments that do not or cannot use directed control protocols, the xconnect command allows provisioning an AToM static pseudowire. Use the manual keyword in the xconnect command to place the router in xconnect configuration mode. MPLS pseudowire labels are configured using the mpls label and (optionally) mpls control-word commands in xconnect configuration mode.
Examples
The following example configures xconnect service for an Ethernet interface by binding the Ethernet circuit to the pseudowire named 123 with a remote peer 10.0.3.201. The configuration settings in the pseudowire class named vlan-xconnect are used.
Router(config)# interface Ethernet0/0.1Router(config-if)# xconnect 10.0.3.201 123 pw-class vlan-xconnectThe following example enters xconnect configuration mode and manually configures L2TPv3 parameters for the attachment circuit:
