1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,984 [MUSIC PLAYING] 2 00:00:03,984 --> 00:00:07,980 3 00:00:07,980 --> 00:00:12,720 So now that we have MPLS traffic engineering tunnels enabled 4 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,500 on the correct interfaces on our core devices, now 5 00:00:16,500 --> 00:00:20,790 we have to configure those interfaces to support RSVP. 6 00:00:20,790 --> 00:00:22,920 And as we're doing that, we're also 7 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:25,710 going to configure them for the total amount 8 00:00:25,710 --> 00:00:29,730 of bandwidth available for MPLS TE tunnels. 9 00:00:29,730 --> 00:00:33,660 Plus we can also configure a maximum per flow. 10 00:00:33,660 --> 00:00:36,150 So there's a grand total, and then there's 11 00:00:36,150 --> 00:00:39,210 the amount per flow that we can reserve 12 00:00:39,210 --> 00:00:44,230 for RSVP, in other words, our MPLS TE tunnels. 13 00:00:44,230 --> 00:00:47,280 So as usual, let's just jump into our topology 14 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,820 real quick, just to get a quick reminder of what interfaces 15 00:00:50,820 --> 00:00:52,710 and what devices we need to configure. 16 00:00:52,710 --> 00:00:54,750 Then we'll jump into the command line 17 00:00:54,750 --> 00:01:00,600 and get RSVP up and running in our MPLS TE core. 18 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:01,100 OK. 19 00:01:01,100 --> 00:01:04,940 So we are still on MPLS topology 1. 20 00:01:04,940 --> 00:01:08,940 And what we're going to be configuring is RSVP. 21 00:01:08,940 --> 00:01:11,460 In pretty much the same as we did with traffic engineering 22 00:01:11,460 --> 00:01:13,830 itself, we're going to have to enable 23 00:01:13,830 --> 00:01:19,590 RSVP on all of these interfaces on each of these devices. 24 00:01:19,590 --> 00:01:22,740 It has to be enabled on all of the interfaces 25 00:01:22,740 --> 00:01:26,670 that we're going to be trying to run MPLS traffic engineering 26 00:01:26,670 --> 00:01:28,060 tunnels through. 27 00:01:28,060 --> 00:01:31,350 So again, this is going to be all of our routers, routers 1 28 00:01:31,350 --> 00:01:34,380 and 2, or of course, gigabit 1 and gigabit 2. 29 00:01:34,380 --> 00:01:38,940 Router 5 is the gigabit 1.3 and the gigabit 1.4 again. 30 00:01:38,940 --> 00:01:43,020 And of course, routers 3 and 4, all of their interfaces, 31 00:01:43,020 --> 00:01:45,040 because they are the PE routers. 32 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,900 So let's go ahead and jump in. 33 00:01:46,900 --> 00:01:50,960 And once again, we will start on router 1. 34 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:55,100 So we'll begin just by going into configuration mode. 35 00:01:55,100 --> 00:01:57,830 Then we go into RSVP configuration mode. 36 00:01:57,830 --> 00:02:00,630 And we begin to configure our interfaces. 37 00:02:00,630 --> 00:02:03,455 So first interface, gigabit 1. 38 00:02:03,455 --> 00:02:05,330 And remember, one of the things we want to do 39 00:02:05,330 --> 00:02:08,030 is specify how much bandwidth is going 40 00:02:08,030 --> 00:02:12,420 to be available to RSVP and therefore, our tunnels. 41 00:02:12,420 --> 00:02:14,810 So if we're going to specify our bandwidth, 42 00:02:14,810 --> 00:02:16,610 you see we have a couple of choices here. 43 00:02:16,610 --> 00:02:19,263 We could do it by percentage and things like this. 44 00:02:19,263 --> 00:02:20,930 But what we're going to do is we're just 45 00:02:20,930 --> 00:02:23,840 going to configure the total resolvable bandwidth. 46 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,320 We can do this in kilobits per second, megabits per second, 47 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,120 or gigabits per second. 48 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,460 Let's just go ahead and configure 2000. 49 00:02:31,460 --> 00:02:34,320 It'll default to kilobits per second. 50 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,230 And then we can specify how much is 51 00:02:36,230 --> 00:02:39,210 going to be available per flow. 52 00:02:39,210 --> 00:02:42,620 And once again, this can be configured in kilobits, 53 00:02:42,620 --> 00:02:44,300 megabits, or gigabits. 54 00:02:44,300 --> 00:02:46,430 We'll just put in 1000. 55 00:02:46,430 --> 00:02:48,050 This would basically give us room 56 00:02:48,050 --> 00:02:50,180 for two tunnels on this interface, 57 00:02:50,180 --> 00:02:52,640 assuming that they use the maximum observable 58 00:02:52,640 --> 00:02:55,460 bandwidth for each tunnel. 59 00:02:55,460 --> 00:02:58,670 We'll do the same configuration for gigabit 2. 60 00:02:58,670 --> 00:03:03,090 We'll commit those changes and exit configuration. 61 00:03:03,090 --> 00:03:06,320 Now a couple of things we can do to verify this, let's start 62 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,330 with a show RSVP summary. 63 00:03:09,330 --> 00:03:12,050 We do see that it's primary active. 64 00:03:12,050 --> 00:03:15,740 The NSR and the ISSU status are currently not ready. 65 00:03:15,740 --> 00:03:18,560 And the interfaces are set to 2. 66 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,800 Those are the two interfaces, of course, we just enabled. 67 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,560 We can also look at the specific interface information. 68 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,200 And what is this telling us? 69 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,260 First, we see that our two interfaces that we chose 70 00:03:30,260 --> 00:03:31,820 are, in fact, enabled. 71 00:03:31,820 --> 00:03:35,180 Then we see the maximum bandwidth that's reservable. 72 00:03:35,180 --> 00:03:39,350 And we see that it's showing it as 2 megabits per second. 73 00:03:39,350 --> 00:03:40,790 That's, of course, because we put 74 00:03:40,790 --> 00:03:43,520 in 2000 kilobits per second. 75 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,820 We could have, of course, just said 2 megabits per second. 76 00:03:46,820 --> 00:03:49,610 We see that the max flow is the same thing. 77 00:03:49,610 --> 00:03:51,950 It's converted to 1,000 kilobits per second 78 00:03:51,950 --> 00:03:53,910 to 1 megabits per second. 79 00:03:53,910 --> 00:03:56,240 And then we see that currently, nothing 80 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,030 is allocated out of that pool. 81 00:03:59,030 --> 00:04:01,820 Of course, this is because we've configured just one router 82 00:04:01,820 --> 00:04:02,760 at this point. 83 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:04,520 We'll, of course, see this change 84 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,560 as we move through the rest of this demonstration. 85 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,040 So now we'll configure the same thing on router 2. 86 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:13,620 87 00:04:13,620 --> 00:04:17,010 So again, we go into RSVP configuration, 88 00:04:17,010 --> 00:04:19,110 into our interfaces. 89 00:04:19,110 --> 00:04:21,000 We set the bandwidth. 90 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,710 And this time, we'll do it in megabits per second. 91 00:04:23,710 --> 00:04:27,270 So we'll say 3 megs and 1 meg. 92 00:04:27,270 --> 00:04:30,531 We'll do the same for interface gigabit 2. 93 00:04:30,531 --> 00:04:32,400 Commit the changes. 94 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,470 Exit configuration. 95 00:04:34,470 --> 00:04:36,810 And then we'll verify this again. 96 00:04:36,810 --> 00:04:40,230 We'll just go right to the show RSVP interface. 97 00:04:40,230 --> 00:04:42,720 And we see here that the output looks exactly the same 98 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:46,470 as router 1, even though we entered our bandwidth numbers 99 00:04:46,470 --> 00:04:48,280 a little bit differently. 100 00:04:48,280 --> 00:04:50,850 So really, your preference, how you want to enter those 101 00:04:50,850 --> 00:04:52,140 bandwidth numbers. 102 00:04:52,140 --> 00:04:55,350 Obviously, the bigger the number gets, the more likely 103 00:04:55,350 --> 00:04:58,440 it would be that you'd want to use megabit or gigabit. 104 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,090 So next up, let's configure router 3. 105 00:05:01,090 --> 00:05:05,410 Same configuration, but we have more interfaces here. 106 00:05:05,410 --> 00:05:13,240 So it's gigabit 0, gigabit 1, gigabit 2, and gigabit 3. 107 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,150 Commit the changes. 108 00:05:15,150 --> 00:05:17,380 And exit configuration. 109 00:05:17,380 --> 00:05:19,840 So once again, let's verify it. 110 00:05:19,840 --> 00:05:21,910 And these are all configured properly. 111 00:05:21,910 --> 00:05:24,570 So finally, let's do router 4. 112 00:05:24,570 --> 00:05:26,250 We'll just copy and paste router 4's 113 00:05:26,250 --> 00:05:28,350 config in because that's exactly the same as what 114 00:05:28,350 --> 00:05:29,058 we've been doing. 115 00:05:29,058 --> 00:05:36,370 116 00:05:36,370 --> 00:05:38,640 We'll do our show RSVP interface. 117 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,740 And we see that, again, all of these interfaces 118 00:05:40,740 --> 00:05:42,400 are configured correctly. 119 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,240 So finally, once again, this brings us to router 5. 120 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:47,700 Slightly different configuration here, 121 00:05:47,700 --> 00:05:50,010 both because it's using some interfaces 122 00:05:50,010 --> 00:05:52,260 and because it's iOS XE. 123 00:05:52,260 --> 00:05:54,420 So let's jump into router 5. 124 00:05:54,420 --> 00:05:58,920 So like most of the differences between iOS XR and iOS XE, 125 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,430 rather than configuring this under a dedicated RSVP 126 00:06:02,430 --> 00:06:06,640 config mode, this is done under the interfaces themselves. 127 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,660 So we'll go into interface gigabit 1.3. 128 00:06:09,660 --> 00:06:14,310 And we say ip rsvp bandwidth. 129 00:06:14,310 --> 00:06:17,760 And we see that, once again, we can enter this information. 130 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,310 Here on iOS XE, it supports kilobits per second, 131 00:06:21,310 --> 00:06:23,130 so we'll say 2000. 132 00:06:23,130 --> 00:06:26,363 Same with the largest reservable per flow. 133 00:06:26,363 --> 00:06:27,780 And remember, of course, there are 134 00:06:27,780 --> 00:06:31,060 other things you can do here is far as percentages and things 135 00:06:31,060 --> 00:06:31,560 like that. 136 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,830 137 00:06:34,830 --> 00:06:38,270 We'll do the same thing for interface gigabit 1.4. 138 00:06:38,270 --> 00:06:40,620 Exit our configuration. 139 00:06:40,620 --> 00:06:45,300 Then we'll do a show ip rsvp interface. 140 00:06:45,300 --> 00:06:48,410 Now a few things to note here about this output. 141 00:06:48,410 --> 00:06:52,130 First thing to note is that the gigabit 1 interface 142 00:06:52,130 --> 00:06:57,320 itself is set to 750 meg, which, of course, is 143 00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:02,210 75% of 1 gig, which is what this interface is. 144 00:07:02,210 --> 00:07:03,960 It's a gigabit interface. 145 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,930 So we see that if we don't configure 146 00:07:05,930 --> 00:07:10,370 the reservable bandwidth, it defaults to 75%. 147 00:07:10,370 --> 00:07:12,620 The other thing to note is that when 148 00:07:12,620 --> 00:07:15,890 it comes to admission control, not only 149 00:07:15,890 --> 00:07:19,190 do we consider the bandwidth we put on the subinterfaces, 150 00:07:19,190 --> 00:07:22,610 but it'll consider the bandwidth on the parent interface 151 00:07:22,610 --> 00:07:23,490 as well. 152 00:07:23,490 --> 00:07:26,570 Now in this case, of course, the parent interface 153 00:07:26,570 --> 00:07:30,230 has way more bandwidth than our subinterfaces. 154 00:07:30,230 --> 00:07:33,050 But if we wanted to configure this to match up, 155 00:07:33,050 --> 00:07:34,430 we can actually do that. 156 00:07:34,430 --> 00:07:36,360 Let's take a look. 157 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,390 Let's go back into configuration, 158 00:07:38,390 --> 00:07:41,300 into interface gigabit 1. 159 00:07:41,300 --> 00:07:46,020 And let's say ip rsvp bandwidth. 160 00:07:46,020 --> 00:07:49,890 Now of course, we need this to cover both subinterfaces now. 161 00:07:49,890 --> 00:07:56,750 So this would be 4000 and 2000 to cover the two subinterfaces. 162 00:07:56,750 --> 00:08:01,250 If we look at this again, again, we didn't have to change this, 163 00:08:01,250 --> 00:08:03,170 but this would make a little more sense 164 00:08:03,170 --> 00:08:06,320 based on how we're trying to configure our bandwidth. 165 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,060 Also, another slightly different command 166 00:08:08,060 --> 00:08:13,573 we could use here on iOS XE is show ip rsvp. 167 00:08:13,573 --> 00:08:14,990 And this will tell us that we have 168 00:08:14,990 --> 00:08:18,110 it enabled on three interfaces, where the rate limiting is 169 00:08:18,110 --> 00:08:21,080 enabled and things along that line. 170 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,860 It tells us a lot of information about the RSVP process 171 00:08:24,860 --> 00:08:28,030 running on this router. 172 00:08:28,030 --> 00:08:30,990 So in this video, we talked about setting up 173 00:08:30,990 --> 00:08:35,460 RSVP on the interfaces on our core routers. 174 00:08:35,460 --> 00:08:39,570 We saw on iOS XR that it has its own separate configuration 175 00:08:39,570 --> 00:08:41,520 mode, like a lot of our features do. 176 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,940 And we configure our bandwidth under the interfaces there, 177 00:08:44,940 --> 00:08:48,060 either in kilobits per second, which is the default, 178 00:08:48,060 --> 00:08:52,140 or we can specify megabits or gigabits per second in addition 179 00:08:52,140 --> 00:08:54,360 to some other features such as doing it 180 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,780 based on the percentage of the available interface bandwidth. 181 00:08:57,780 --> 00:09:01,890 We also saw how it default to 75%. 182 00:09:01,890 --> 00:09:04,920 Now on iOS XE, remember that the configuration 183 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,560 moves to be under the interface themselves, 184 00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:10,380 like a lot of things are on iOS XE. 185 00:09:10,380 --> 00:09:12,570 But at the end of the day, the configuration 186 00:09:12,570 --> 00:09:15,210 was pretty much the same thing. 187 00:09:15,210 --> 00:09:18,720 Also note that when you're configuring subinterfaces, 188 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,940 we need to make sure that there's enough available 189 00:09:20,940 --> 00:09:23,950 bandwidth on the parent interface as well. 190 00:09:23,950 --> 00:09:27,450 Otherwise, we could fail at mission control. 191 00:09:27,450 --> 00:09:31,620 Now all of this takes care of setting up RSVP. 192 00:09:31,620 --> 00:09:35,790 But don't forget, we also need to configure our IGP 193 00:09:35,790 --> 00:09:38,070 to support traffic engineering. 194 00:09:38,070 --> 00:09:40,390 And that's what we're going to do next. 195 00:09:40,390 --> 00:09:43,860 Until then, I hope this has been informative for you. 196 00:09:43,860 --> 00:09:46,970 And I'd like to thank you for viewing. 197 00:09:46,970 --> 00:09:51,000
