NOTE:
Layer 3 interfaces such as Layer 3 Ethernet interfaces and VLAN interfaces support MPLS. Tunnel
interfaces and Layer 2 interfaces do not support MPLS.
Enabling the MPLS function
Enable MPLS on all routers before you can configure other MPLS features.
Configuration prerequisites
Before you enable MPLS, complete the following tasks:
•
Configure link layer protocols to ensure the connectivity at the link layer.
•
Assign IP addresses to interfaces so that all neighboring nodes can reach each other at the network
layer.
•
Configure static routes or an IGP protocol for the LSRs to communicate with each other.
