MPLS over virtual Ethernet interfaces

1

Use the rsvp-periodic-flooding-timer command to set the interval for periodic flooding. The interval
is set in seconds. To set the interval as 240 which triggers periodic flooding every four minutes,
enter commands such as the following.

Brocade(config)# router mpls

Brocade(config-mpls)# policy

Brocade(config-mpls-policy)# rsvp-periodic-flooding-timer 240

Brocade(config-mpls-policy)# no rsvp-periodic-flooding-timer

Brocade(config-mpls-policy)#

Syntax: [no] rsvp-periodic-flooding-timer interval

Use the interval parameter to set the length of interval used for periodic flooding (in seconds). Valid
range is zero, 30-3600. For value zero, periodic flooding is turned off.

The [no] form of this command can be used to set the periodic flooding timer to default value.

MPLS over virtual Ethernet interfaces

Brocade devices support MPLS over virtual ethernet (VE) interfaces. MPLS over VE interfaces
enables MPLS to be configured over tagged links. With this feature, MPLS can run over a single tag
on the port. Other tags on the port can be used for other applications, such as Layer 2 VLANs, VPLS
endpoints, VLL endpoints, etc.

An MPLS enabled VE interface supports the following services.

IP over MPLS

L3VPN

Transit LSR

PBR over MPLS

LSP Accounting

MPLS VLL

MPLS VPLS

Multicast Snooping over VPLS

802.1ag

MPLS OAM

BFD

NOTE

MPLS over VE interfaces is supported on both Brocade NetIron XMR and Brocade MLX series
devices, and on Brocade NetIron CES and Brocade NetIron CER devices.

NOTE

MPLS encapsulated packets are not supported for sFlow processing.
