To configure an LDP interface

Note: You can choose to inherit values from the global-level LDP configuration by selecting the Inherit Value parameter.

Steps
 

In the navigation tree Routing view, expand Network→NE→Routing Instance→LDP.


Right-click on the LDP icon and choose Create Interface.


Select an interface in the Interface panel.


Configure the required general parameters.


Click on the Protocol Properties tab and configure the required parameters on the available tabs.

By default, the parameter values are inherited by all LDP interfaces.

For the Address Type parameter:

  • Choose System to have the system IP address set up LDP sessions.

  • Choose Interface to have the IP interface address set up LDP sessions only if there are not multiple interfaces between the two neighbors.


If you set the Local LSR ID parameter to Interface, click Select in the Interface panel and select a routing interface.

For LDP interfaces on the 7210 SAS, the Interface panel does not appear when you set the Local LSR ID parameter to Interface. The address of the interface you are configuring is used by default.


Save your changes and close the form.


Configure the protocol for the far-end device, if applicable. Use CLI for devices that are managed outside the scope of the NFM-P.
