[mpls-linux-general] RSVP-TE Question

[baim <j0...@te...>]

Hi... i had installing rsvp-te for diffserv over mpls 
version 0.70-rc2 successfully, and now i want to comparing 
the performance of a network that only using MPLS vs MPLS 
+ RSVP.
This is my network configuration :

host1|--|eth0=R1=eth1|--|eth0=R2=eth1|--|R3|--|R4|--|host2
at host1 :
eth0 = 10.10.10.1
at R1 :
eth0 = 10.10.10.2
eth1 = 11.11.11.1
at R2 :
eth0 = 11.11.11.2
eth1 = 12.12.12.1

But a got a problem when i try to activate only MPLS at R1 
and R2. Here what i done :
At host1 :
#route add -net 11.11.11.0 gw 10.10.10.2 netmask 
255.255.255.0
#route add -net 12.12.12.0 gw 10.10.10.2 netmask 
255.255.255.0
At R1 :
#mplsadm -A -O gen:100:eth1:ipv4:11.11.11.2
#mplsadm -A -I gen:110:0
#mplsadm -L eth1:0
#route add -host 11.11.11.2 gw 11.11.11.2
#route add -host 12.12.12.1 gw 11.11.11.2
#route add -host 10.10.10.1 gw 10.10.10.1
At R2 :
#mplsadm -A -O gen:110:eth0:ipv4:11.11.11.1
#mplsadm -A -I gen:100:0
#mplsadm -L eth0:0
#route add -host 11.11.11.1 gw 11.11.11.1
#route add -host 10.10.10.2 gw 11.11.11.1
#route add -host 10.10.10.1 gw 11.11.11.1

there nothing error message with the configuration but 
when i try to ping from host1 to the 11.11.11.2 (R2) there 
is only a message : 
#ping 11.11.11.2
PING 11.11.11.2 (11.11.11.2) from 10.10.10.1 : 56(84) 
bytes of data.
I am using Redhat 7.1, installing RSVP-TE with the package 
and guide from dsmpls.atlantis.rug.ac.be.

My question is:
- What's wrong with my configuration ?
- The ip_forward is 0. Should i change it to 1 ?
- MPLS using layer 2 forwarding, so i do not need to make 
the ip_forward = 1. Am I wrong.. ?
- Can you give me the right mpls configuration with that 
network configuration. ?
