Configuring MPLS-TE
Use these commands to configures MPLS-TE on the router. The table below lists the MPLS-TE
configuration commands and the MPLS-TE supported network eleme nts. Additional commands may be
available for your devices. New commands are often provided in Prime Network Device Packages,
which can be downloaded from the Prime Network software download site. For more information on
how to download and install DPs and enable new commands, see the information on “Adding Additional
Device (VNE) support” in the Cisco Prime Network 4.0 Administrator Guide.
To run the these commands, the software on the network element must suppor t t he t ec hnolo gy. Before

Configuring MPLS
Multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) is a high-performance packet forwarding technology that
integrates the performance and traffic management capabilities of data link layer (Layer 2) switching
with the scalability, flexibility, and performance of network layer (Layer 3) routing. Use these
commands to enable MPLS protocol on Cisco routers.
The table below lists the MPLS configuration commands. Additional commands may be available for
your devices. New commands are often provided in Prime Network Device Packages, which can be
downloaded from the Prime Network software download site. For more informa tion on how to download
and install DPs and enable new commands, see the information on “Adding Additional Device (VNE)
