Note that both IS-IS and OSPF have TE extensions to support Traffic Engineering. Thus means that the IGP also holds the amount of reserved and unreserved bandwidth on each link, affinity of links, etc. so protocols like RSVP-TE can find a path with the appropriate attributes of the tunnel.

Hi

 

Not necessarily,

Any Link state protocols are OK for TE

But currently we have two ie OSPF and IS-IS.

So MPLS network uses them.

Hi

 

from all the examples i saw, the interior gateway routing protocol for an mpls network is alwayes

ospf or is-is. is there any particular reason for that ?

i have a production network runing eigrp as the igp, we are now starting to employ mpls in the network,

and i would like to avoid migrating into a different igp at the moment.
