# NAME
|
|
|
|
*interfaces-mpls* - MPLS vocabulary for the interfaces(5) file format
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
Linux allows has support for MultiProtocol Label Switching (MPLS) for a while
|
|
now. The following options allow for this configuration.
|
|
|
|
# MPLS-RELATED OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
The MPLS executor will only modify the sysctl configuration if these options
|
|
are provided, otherwise other mechanisms such as /etc/sysctl.conf may be used.
|
|
If MPLS is enabled on (at least) one interface the executor will load the
|
|
_mpls_iptunnel_ kernel module.
|
|
|
|
Be aware that you have to set the _platform_labels_ sysctl to make MPLS work.
|
|
See https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/mpls-sysctl.rst for
|
|
more details on the MPLS related knobs in the Linux kernel.
|
|
|
|
|
|
*mpls-enable* _yes|no_
|
|
Control whether packets can be input on this interface. If disabled,
|
|
packets carrying an MPLS label will be discarded without further
|
|
processing.
