te tunnel path

Mon Dec 14, 2009 8:11 pm

I've setup a test lab very similar to the MPLSVPLS example on the wiki page. My problem is with TE tunnels and it not choosing the shortest path when using CSPF and some confusing route paths. When I create a TE tunnel from R1 to R5 the path used is R1,R2,R3,R4,R5. When I create a TE tunnel from R5 to R1 it uses the correct/shortest path of R5,R3,R2,R1. If anyone wants part of the configuration posted let me know. Here is a traceroute from R1 to R5
Code: Select all
/tool traceroute 192.168.0.18
     ADDRESS                                    STATUS
   1     192.168.0.2 4ms 3ms 4ms 
   2     192.168.0.6 5ms 5ms 5ms 
   3    192.168.0.18 11ms 13ms 7ms
From R1 to R4 with extra route???
Code: Select all
/tool traceroute 192.168.0.17
     ADDRESS                                    STATUS
   1     192.168.0.2 6ms 4ms 3ms 
   2     192.168.0.6 5ms 5ms 4ms 
   3    192.168.0.14 10ms 9ms 6ms 
   4    192.168.0.17 8ms 7ms 8ms
R1 to R5 using loopback
Code: Select all
/tool traceroute 10.255.255.5 src-address=10.255.255.1
     ADDRESS                                    STATUS
   1     192.168.0.2 9ms 8ms 9ms 
                      mpls-label=17
   2     192.168.0.6 11ms 9ms 7ms 
                      mpls-label=17
   3    10.255.255.5 6ms 9ms 6ms
R1 to R4 using loopback
Code: Select all
/tool traceroute 10.255.255.4 src-address=10.255.255.1 
     ADDRESS                                    STATUS
   1     192.168.0.2 12ms 8ms 8ms 
                      mpls-label=19
   2     192.168.0.6 13ms 8ms 7ms

TE tunnel on R1
Code: Select all
/interface traffic-eng monitor 0 once 

             tunnel-id: 4
    primary-path-state: established
          primary-path: dyn
  secondary-path-state: not-necessary
           active-path: dyn
          active-lspid: 1
          active-label: 22
        explicit-route: "S:192.168.0.2/32,S:192.168.0.5/32,S:192.168.0.6/32,
                        S:192.168.0.9/32,S:192.168.0.10/32,S:192.168.0.17/32,
                        S:192.168.0.18/32"
        recorded-route: "192.168.0.5[22],192.168.0.9[22],192.168.0.17[38],
                        192.168.0.18[0]"
    reserved-bandwidth: 60.0Mbps
If I add a 192.168.0.13:loose to the tunnel path then it will traverse over the shorter route. I'm just trying to understand why this isn't the default behaviour.
Code: Select all
 tunnel-id: 9
    primary-path-state: established
          primary-path: static-test
  secondary-path-state: not-necessary
           active-path: static-test
          active-lspid: 1
          active-label: 26
        explicit-route: "S:192.168.0.2/32,S:192.168.0.5/32,S:192.168.0.6/32,
                        S:192.168.0.13/32,S:192.168.0.14/32"
        recorded-route: "192.168.0.5[26],192.168.0.13[26],192.168.0.14[0]"
    reserved-bandwidth: 60.0Mbps
Here is my ip configuration on the routers with the 10.255.255 addresses being the loopback bridge.

R1
10.255.255.1/32
192.168.0.1/30

192.168.0.6/30
192.168.0.9/30
192.168.0.13/30

R4
10.255.255.4/32
192.168.0.10/30

R5
10.255.255.5/32

Two first traceroutes suggest that regular routing in your setup is somehow going asymmetrically. Please post routing tables of R3,R4 and R5.

Problem with CSPF has been confirmed and will be fixed in next release. Thanks for pointing out!
