      Configuring VRFs
    The Traffic Engineering LSPs tab in the LSEs branch in logical inventory displays TE tunnel LSP 
    information. 
    For details about the information displayed for TE tunnel LSPs, see Traffic Engineering LSPs, 
    page 17-42. 
    Configuring VRFs
    The following commands configure routes that are available or reachable to all the destinations or 
    networks in the VRF. These commands are launched by right-clicking the VRF node and choosing 
    Commands > Configuration. Your permissions determine whether you can run these commands (see 
    Permissions for Managing MPLS Services, page B-18). To find out if a device supports these commands, 
    see the Cisco Prime Network 4.3.2 Supported Cisco VNEs.  Burst (Kbps) Burst flow specification (in Kb/s) for this tunnel.

      Configuring IP Interfaces
    Configuring IP Interfaces
    The following IP interface commands are launched by right-clicking Routing Entities > routing entity 
    and choosing Commands > Configuration. Your permissions determine whether you can run these 
    commands (see Permissions for Managing IP and MPLS Multicast, page B-20). To find out if a device 
    supports these commands, see the Cisco Prime Network 4.3.2 Supported Cisco VNEs. 
    Auto-IP in PN
    Prime network supports AUTO-IP feature in 4.3.2 Release. Auto-IP is an IP address configured on the 
    interface using the Auto-IP ring command. The Auto-IP feature enables node insertion, removal and 
    movement to any location within a ring without the need for reconfiguring the existing nodes manually. 
    When enabled on the physical interface or the sub interface, you can discover the devices in the Auto-IP 
    ring automatically.
    Configuring Auto-IP
    To configure Auto-IP, configure one of the routers in the ring as a seed router. Normally an edge router 
    is configured as a seed router, and the Auto-IP address of the seed router is same as the IP address of the 
    router interface in which the Auto-IP is enabled. The device, in which the Auto-IP configured with 
    priority value 2, becomes the owner interface and assigns the IP address to the non-owner interface 
    (Priority value for non-owner interface is 0) in the ring topology. The Link Layer Discovery Protocol 
    (LLDP) must be enabled on the device before enabling the auto-IP functionality on a node interface. 
    NoteWhen you configure Auto-IP feature on the devices, by default, the priority value is 1. 
    Configuring MPLS-TP
    The following MPLS-TP commands are launched by right-clicking the appropriate node and choosing 
    MPLS-TP Global > Commands > Configuration. Your permissions determine whether you can run 
    these commands (see Permissions for Managing MPLS Services, page B-18). To find out if a device 
    supports these commands, see the Cisco Prime Network 4.3.2 Supported Cisco VNEs. 
    NoteTo run the Global Configuration, BFD Configuration, and Link Configuration commands on the Cisco 
    Carrier Packet Transport (CPT) System, right-click the device in the Vision client list or map view, and 
    click Logical Inventory > CPT Context Container. Command Description
    Create Interface

      Configuring MPLS-TP
    Locking/Unlocking MPLS-TP Tunnels in Bulk
    An MPLS-TP network has one or multiple LSPs running between endpoint devices. If you want to 
    shutdown one of the interfaces in the network, the MPLS-TP packet must be diverted through an 
    alternative LSP. This can be achieved by locking the interface. Before attempting to lock or unlock a 
    tunnel, ensure that MPLS-TP tunnels have been configured for the link. Also, ensure that you have the 
    appropriate rights (Configurator and above) to lock or unlock a tunnel.
    The MPLS-TP bulk lockout/unlock option in Prime Network allows you to lock or unlock multiple 
    MPLS-TP tunnels on different VNEs at the same time. 
    Your permissions determine whether you can run these commands (see Permissions for Managing MPLS 
    Services, page B-18). To find out if a device supports these commands, see the Cisco Prime Network 
    4.3.2 Supported Cisco VNEs. 
    Locking MPLS-TP Tunnels
    To lock MPLS-TP tunnels in bulk:
    Step 1In the map view, right-click the required link and choose Properties.  Command Description
    Tunnel Ping 
    Tunnel Trace
    LSP Ping

    LSP Path Lockout can be accessed at both the tunnel level 
    and endpoint level. If you run the command at the tunnel 
    level, you must indicate whether the Lsp is protected or 
    working.
