Operation Manual – MPLS TE 
H3C S9500 Series Routing Switches 

Chapter 1  MPLS TE Configuration

 

1-6 

V. Administrative group and affinity attribute 

The affinity attribute of an MPLS TE tunnel identifies the properties of the links that the 
tunnel can use. Together with the link administrative group, it decides which links the 
MPLS TE tunnel can use. 

VI. Reoptimization 

Traffic engineering is a process of allocating/reallocating network resources. You may 
configure it to meet desired QoS. 

Normally, service providers use some mechanism to optimize CR-LSPs for best use of 
network resources. They can do this manually but CR-LSP measurement and tuning 
are required. Alternatively, they can use MPLS TE where CR-LSPs are dynamically 
optimized.  

Dynamic CR-LSP optimization involves periodic calculation of paths that traffic trunks 
should traverse. If a better route is found for an existing CR-LSP, a new CR-LSP will be 
established to replace the old one, and services will be switched to the new CR-LSP.  

1.1.5  CR-LDP 

Constraint-based routed label distribution protocol (CR-LDP) is an extension to LDP. It 
is used in MPLS TE to create an explicit path with resource reservation between the 
ingress node and the egress node. 

When initiating an LSP at the ingress, CR-LDP appends some constraints in the label 
request message. 

 

 

  Note: 

The S9500 series does not support CR-LDP.
