Hi Yes I understand it is possible to map an LSP onto an MPLS-TE tunnel what is currently not possible is to map an MPLS labelled packet onto a TE tunnel based on the bits marked in the EXP field which denote the COS for that packet so it is not possible to create different class tunnels with guaranteed bandwidth between sites and then use those tunnels for your different classes of traffic within and MPLS VPN -----Original Message----- From: LIAN Franklin FTLD/IAP [mailto:franklin.lian@francetelecom.com] Sent: 28 January 2002 15:07 To: Ruyter Hill Cc: 'mpls-ops@mplsrc.com' Subject: Re: FW: Guaranteed QoS using MPLS? Hello, Hill I didn't test it myself but when I talked to Juniper the other day about per-LSP monitoring issue within MPLS VPN, they recommended put the MPLS-VPN on top of MPLS-TE, in another words, they claimed that by can put each VPN-LSP into individually configured MPLS-TE.
