Hello Ben and others, I have a physical hybrid testbed network with OVS switches (i.e. Pica8 hardware switches) as MPLS label edge routers and Juniper MPLS switches as core MPLS label switching routers.
I want the edge OVS switches to push MPLS labels on to the incoming flow traffic and the core Juniper switches to switch that traffic based on the incoming labels and configured LSPs. I have configured static LSPs on the Juniper switches and I know the exact label - flow traffic bindings for each LSP. I have tested my hardware OVS switches for pushing the MPLS labels on to the incoming flow traffic (i.e. I have checked the Pica8 hardware flow tables for this). They seem to push the labels on to the incoming flow traffic. Somehow, this MPLS label pushed traffic is not being switched and/or matched by the incoming MPLS label and configured static LSPs in the core Juniper MPLS switches. Can any one of you tell me the reason for this behaviour, or am I missing something here ? I presumed that MPLS label format is vendor-independent, am I correct ? Let me know, how to debug this issue. With regards, *M.P.V.
