Multi Protocol Label Switching

 In Huawei RTN, data packets can  One MPLS Tunnel can carry many
be transparently transmitted PWs
using MPLS Tunnels.
 A data service is mapped to a PW,
 This is achieved by encapsulating which is transmitted over the
data packets in Pseudo Wires MPLS tunnel
(PWs) 1
 MPLS Tunnel are created over layer 3 connectivity. Therefore, we must configure our
microwave link over layer3.

 In order for an NE work as an LSR (Layer Switching Router), we must configure a

unique LSR ID.

 In order to carry services over MPLS tunnel, we must create Pseudo wires and map
them to User services. 1
