This one was my first exposure to Traffic Engineering (TE) and it was an eye opening lab on how much I don't know about TE.
Notes:
1. enable 'mpls traffic-eng' globally on MPLS routers (PE and P)
2. enable 'mpls traffic-eng' on a per interface basis for the links that are MPLS enabled
3. enable 'mpls traffic-eng' under the OSPF process specifying a router-id and area
4. configure RSVP on a per interface basis for the tunnel path
5. configure tunnel interfaces on the PE end points
6. advertise the tunnel interface/ip in OSPF.
TE is something I need to read up on but doing the lab before hand actually will help understand what I'm going to read.
