hmm, not sure if there are any options according to RSVP specs RFC2205,
Section 2.3:

"State that is received through a particular interface I* should
 never be forwarded out the same interface.  Conversely, state that
 is forwarded out interface I* must be computed using only state
 that arrived on interfaces different from I*."

what are you trying to achieve?
