To import MPLS objects from the NFM-P

General information

Perform this procedure to import MPLS objects from the NFM-P for impact analysis simulations. You can import the following MPLS objects:

  • LSPs

  • LSP paths

  • MPLS provisioned paths

You cannot import LDP objects from the NFM-P.

Steps
 

Perform To open a scenario to open a simulation topology map.


Right-click on the map and choose MPLS Model from the contextual menu. The SIMULATION-MPLS Model form opens.


Click on the Import LSPs Config button and perform one the following:

  1. Choose All Simulated LSPs from Other Scenario from the contextual menu to import all existing simulated LSPs from another scenario. The Select Scenario to import all its Simulated LSPs form opens. Go to Step 4 .

  2. Choose Selected Simulated LSPs from Other Scenario from the contextual menu to select and import existing simulated LSPs from another scenario. The Import Selected Simulated LSPs from Other Scenario form opens. Go to Step 5 .

  3. Choose Selected LSPs from Real Network from the contextual menu to import selected existing real LSPs from a real network. The Import Selected LSPs from Real Network form opens. Go to Step 7 .

  4. Choose All LSPs from Real Network from the contextual menu to import all existing real LSPs from a real network. A dialog box appears. Click on the Yes button and go to Step 9 .


Choose an entry and click on the OK button. The Select Scenario to import all its Simulated LSPs form closes. Go to Step 9 .


Specify a filter for the search, if required, and click on the Search button. A list of simulated LSPs appears.


Choose an entry and click on the OK button. The Import Selected Simulated LSPs from Other Scenario form closes. Go to Step 9 .


Specify a filter for the search, if required, and click on the Search button. A list of dynamic LSPs appears.


Choose an entry and click on the OK button. The Import Selected LSPs from Real Network form closes.


Close the SIMULATION-MPLS Model form.

Click on the Impact Analysis button on the SIMULATION - Protocol Model - Scenario topology map to run the analysis. When the impact analysis is complete, Topology Converged is displayed, and the Legend - SIMULATION - Protocol Model - Scenario form opens with the Last Impact Results tab displayed.

Note: For quick reference to the last results of the impact analysis, you can keep the Legend - SIMULATION - Protocol Model - Scenario form open while you are working with the simulation topology.

Click on the View Impact Details button, if required, to view the details of the impact analysis. The Action Event - Impact Analysis - SIMULATION - Scenario (Edit) form opens with the General tab displayed.


12 

Click on the following tabs to view information about the impact analysis:

  • Attributes

  • Scenario

  • IP Paths

  • LSP Paths

  • Services


13 

Close the Action Event - Impact Analysis - SIMULATION - Scenario (Edit) form.


14 

Click on the Close button to close the Legend - SIMULATION - Protocol Model - Scenario form.


15 

Close the SIMULATION - Protocol Model - Scenario topology map.
