HP MSR2000/3000/4000 Router Series MPLS Command Reference

145
Usage guidelines
This command specifies an MPLS TE or GRE tunnel interface. The destination address of the tunnel
interface identifies a peer PE so the local PE will forward traffic destined for that peer PE over the
specified tunnel. HP recommends using this method.
For a tunnel policy to solely use a tunnel, do not specify the tunnel as the preferred tunnel in other tunnel
policies.
If you specify multiple preferred tunnels that have the same destination address in a tunnel policy, only
the first configured tunnel takes effect. If the first tunnel is not available, the second tunnel is used, and so
forth. No load balancing will be performed on these tunnels.
You can specify up to 128 preferred tunnels in a tunnel policy.
Examples
# Configure tunnel 1 and tunnel 2 as preferred tunnels for tunnel policy policy1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] tunnel-policy policy1
[Sysname-tunnel-policy-policy1] preferred-path tunnel 1
[Sysname-tunnel-policy-policy1] preferred-path tunnel 2
select-seq load-balance-number
Use select-seq load-balance-number to configure the tunnel selection order and the number of tunnels
for load balancing.
Use undo select-seq load-balance-number to restore the default.
Syntax
select-seq { cr-lsp | gre | lsp } * load-balance-number number
undo select-seq
Default
The device selects only one tunnel in LSP-GRE-CR-LSP order.

Parameters
cr-lsp: Uses CR-LSP tunnels.
gre: Uses GRE tunnels.
lsp: Uses LSP tunnels.
load-balance-number number: Specifies the number of tunnels for load balancing, in the range of 1 to
8.
Usage guidelines
A tunnel type closer to the select-seq keyword has a higher priority, and only the tunnel types specified
in this command can be used. For example, the select-seq lsp gre load-balance-number 3 command
