Working with MPLS-TP Tunnels
MPLS-Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) is considered to be the next generation transport for those using 
SONET/SDH TDM technologies as they migrate to packet-switching technology. Although still under 
definition by the IETF, MPLS-TP provides: 
Predetermined and long-lived connections. 
Emphasis on manageability and deterministic behavior. 
Fast fault detection and...

Adding an MPLS-TP Tunnel
Prime Network automatically discovers MPLS-TP tunnels, endpoints, and midpoints and enables you to 
add MPLP-TP tunnels to maps. 
To add an MPLS-TP tunnel to a map: 
Step 1In the Vision client, display the map to which you want to add the MPLS-TP tunnel.
Step 2Do either of the following:
From the File menu, choose Add to Map > MPLS-TP Tunnel.
In the main toolbar,...

If an LSP is in lockout state, it is displayed with the lock badge ( ). 
By expanding all aggregations in the MPLS-TP tunnel (see Figure 17-4), you can see components and 
links in the MPLS-TP tunnel, including: 
MPLS-TP tunnel endpoints
