Procedure 9-7.1: Create Pseudowire segments

- Overview

Use this procedure to automatically create a pseudowire (PW) AID output parameter for tunnel TYPE=TERMINATION. Use the Web GUI or the ENT-TMPLS-PWSEG command to create a PWSegment. The PW parameters can be modified using ED-TMPLS-PW command. The PW can be deleted using DLT-TMPLS-PW command.

The pseudowire is created by the system when a PW Segment is created. The PW AID and PW Segment AID are assigned by the system.

The System supports a maximum of 250 bidirectional MPLS PWSegments. PWSegment AID =

Step
 
1

Login to the VLNC42B.


2

From the Navigation menu, select TMPLS → Pseudo Wire Management → Create Terminated PW.

Equivalent TLI command: ent-tmplspwseg.

Result:

The Create Terminated Pseudo wire Segment screen displays.


3

Enter the parameters as required then click Submit. See Pseudowire parameters.

Equivalent TL1 command: ENT-TMPLSPWSEG:[ TID]::[CTAG]::PORT,[TYPE],[DIR],[USERNAME]:[,INLABEL=][,OUTLABEL=][, PHBPROF-AID=][,CW=];.

See Pseudowire parameters for parameters.

Result:

Output: PWSegment AID and Pseudowire AID (identifies the PW automatically generated for Terminated PWSegment). PWSEG-1-1-{1-250}. PW AID = PW-1-1-{1-250}.

Example:

ENT-TMPLS-PWSEG:::TS001::TUSEG-1-1-1,TERMINATION,BIDIR:INLABEL=1000, OUTLABEL=1025;

Pseudowire parameters

Parameter

Value

TL1 command

MPLS Port (port)

The TUSEG AID in the system. Note that the valid TUSegment must not have its corresponding Tunnel be a protecting Tunnel.

TUSegment must be already defined and TYPE must be equal to TERMINATION.

ent-tmpls-pwseg: port

Type

Value: TERMINATED

ent-tmpls-pwseg: type=termination

Direction (dir)

PWSegment direction. Valid value: BIDIR.

ent-tmpls-pwseg: dir=bidir

User Name (username)

The user name for the PWSegment. The valid value is a character string up to 30 ASCII characters.

ent-tmpls-pwseg: username

In Label (inlabel)

Expected Label for incoming segment associated to Sink PWSegment.

The label value must be unique in the system. Valid values: an integer in the range of 16 - 1023.

ent-tmpls-pwseg: inlabel

Out Label (outlabel)

Transmitted Label for outgoing segment associated to Source PWSegment.

The label value must be unique on the TUGSegment basis. Valid values: an integer in the range of 16 - 1048575.

ent-tmpls-pwseg: outlabel

PHB Profile (phbprof-aid)

Per-Hop Behaviour (PHB) Profile, AID of PHB Profile resource. The default value is PHBPROF-2.

ent-tmpls-pwseg: phbprof-aid

Control Word (cw)

Enabling/disabling capability to insertion/stripping of the Control Word, associated to Termination PWSegment. Valid values: enable or disable. Default: disable.

ent-tmpls-pwseg: cw
