[f-nsp] MPLS tips on XMR w/Cisco

[Vinny Abello]

Anyone care to share any experiences integrating the XMR into a Cisco
MPLS topology? Any pitfalls, notes, or other good things to know? I'm
trying to do just that and the configuration seems very different than
Cisco's configuration... which is surprising when most of the XMR CLI
feel like a Cisco.

Are there any considerations to take into account with the default MTU
size and MPLS overhead?

Also, anyone know how to automatically inject an MPLS TE tunnel as a
next-hop into ISIS for reaching the loopback of another router? I can do
this on a Cisco with the "tunnel mpls traffic-engineering autoroute
announce" command. I saw the "shortcuts ospf" command under the LSP
configuration, but I'm running ISIS and don't think that applies.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks! :)
