[. . . ] You can use the mpls copy-upc-to-exp command to free the EXP bits value in IP packets from being tied to the IP precedence value. Instead, this command sets the EXP bits value to match the user packet class (UPC) value. The IP precedence value can be copied back into the IP precedence field of the IP packet header at the LSP endpoint on the ingress line module. This action takes place only if the IP header is exposed after popping the MPLS labels and if the uniform tunnel model is employed. In contrast, when you issue mpls copy-upc-to-exp command, the EXP bits value is not copied to the UPC field at the LSP endpoint, because the UPC value might have been set by a lower layer policy for a different purpose. NOTE: For control traffic originated from this router, if an attached per-LSP policy has rules to modify the EXP bits, or if per-VR EXP rules are configured, the EXP bits value copied from the IP precedence value might be overwritten incorrectly because the default traffic class/color combination for control traffic is best-effort/green. You can avoid this situation by establishing an outgoing IP policy that sets the traffic class/color combination for control traffic so that the policy or rules have the correct traffic class/color to work with. If per-LSP policies are used or per-VR rules are configured, by default all labels pushed by the router for the same packet have the same EXP bits value. You can use the mpls preserve-vpn-exp command to specify that the EXP bits value for the VPN or Martini or VPLS label pushed by the router cannot be modified by either policy for outer labels or by per-VR rules. This capability is useful if you want the inner labels to have a different value for the EXP bits than do the outer labels. For example, in a VPN you might want the inner label's EXP bits value to be the copied IP precedence Copyright © 2010, Juniper Networks, Inc. 269 JunosE 11. 3. x BGP and MPLS Configuration Guide value. You might want the base label's EXP bits value set according to the mapping of EXP bits to traffic class/color combination that is defined in your network.

You can use point-to-multipoint LSPs to avoid unnecessary duplication of packets at the ingress router by allowing non-ingress LSRs to replicate the incoming data on one or more outgoing interfaces. Point-to-multipoint LSPs for multicast VPNs are supported for intra-autonomous system (AS) environments (within an AS), but are not supported for inter-AS environments (between ASs). Although you can use point-to-point LSPs to provide point-to-multipoint services, this type of configuration can cause data replication at the ingress LSR or duplicate traffic Copyright © 2010, Juniper Networks, Inc. 271 JunosE 11. 3. x BGP and MPLS Configuration Guide within the network. You can use the traffic engineering (TE) capability of LSPs to achieve consistent QoS control and efficient use of network resources, and create point-to-multipoint LSPs to deliver data from one ingress LSR to multiple egress LSRs. The flow of traffic in a point-to-multipoint LSP is not restricted to the paths that are followed for multicast or shortest path routing; instead, you can explicitly configure the values to determine the path. Packet replication takes place only when packets are forwarded to two or more different destinations requiring different network paths. A point-to-multipoint TE tunnel is composed of multiple point-to-multipoint LSPs. To scale to a large number of nodes or branches in a point-to-multipoint LSP, each LSP is uniquely identified by a point-to-multipoint ID, which is unique for the entire LSP, regardless of the number of branches or leaves it contains. A point-to-multipoint LSP is composed of multiple source-to-leaf sub-LSPs. These sub-LSPs are formed between the ingress and egress LSRs to form the point-to-multipoint LSP. Point-to-multipoint LSPs can be signaled using one or more path messages. If a path message signals only one sub-LSP, it targets only one leaf in the point-to-multipoint tunnel.
