MPLS over GRE tunnel
Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) packets can traverse a non-MPLS network using Label
Distribution Protocol (LDP) in transit mode over a Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) tunnel. This
method can be convenient for networks that do not require traffic engineering.
NOTE
LDP ingress and egress functionality over a GRE tunnel is not supported.
NOTE
RSVP is not supported for GRE tunnels. In the case of LDP over GRE, when the user enters the
mpls-interface tunnel command, RSVP is not enabled; for other types of interfaces RSVP is enabled
when the interface is configured.
NOTE
All LDP enabled interfaces must have the same IP MTU. Otherwise, when LDP is enabled on lower
MTU interfaces, existing Hello adjacencies flap once to negotiate the LDP MAX PDU size with the
peers.
