Although this task is similar to the previous task, its importance makes it necessary to present as part of
the tasks required for traffic engineering on Cisco IOS XR software.
Note
Before You Begin
The following prerequisites are required to protect MPLS-TE tunnels:
•
You must have a router ID for the neighboring router.
•
Stable router ID is required at either end of the link to ensure that the link is successful. If you do not
assign a router ID to the routers, the system defaults to the global router ID. Default router IDs are subject
to change, which can result in an unstable link.
•
You must first configure a primary tunnel.
