Hi
I am doing a simple lab and at the very beginning I have a problem .Well it does not set up the tunnel ,I have checked the configuration many times with the official cisco materials and the configuration seems correct. Anyone can help ?
Below i am uploading my topology along with the configuration.

Hi
"mpls traffic-eng tunnels" was added globally at the very beginning and still is.. Very strange riddle

Hi @quad99 ,
The issue is with the "mpls traffic-eng router-id Loopback0" that was initially configured out of sequence (before loopback 0 was configured) on P1 and P2. Please configured it again and the problems will be solved.

01-05-2025 08:33 AM
...Right ! For Router P1 & P2 I did the configurations in the wrong order . I don't know how I could not notice that ...what a shame
Best regards

I ask you twice did you close and reopen lab and you confirm ?
it sure ID issue and when close and reopen the issue will solve
anyway
glad issue solved

I did as you say .It was not a virtualization environment problem just a configuration problem (mpls-te was missing on the P1 router).

Friend I am happy participate in this issue,
each time I participate give more ack now I know what I will looking for in feature for mpls te.
have a nice day

Great! Cool that the community is working so well. If I gain experience then I will also try to help others
01-05-2025 08:59 AM
Join try solve any issue other face, write comment do lab.
For mpls te, your issue give me hint how I looking for correct config.
And when I finish my note I will share with you.
In real network try and guess is not preferr.
Anyway let me finish my note and later we talk
Dont stop studying

Hi @MHM Cisco World ,
First thing that should be done when troubleshooting why a MPLS TE tunnel doesn't come up is to check the error message part of the "show mpls traffic-eng tunnels". The next step is often to check the MPLS TE database to see if the information is present for all the nodes. If the information is not there for a specific node, the issue is most likely related to the MPLS TE configuration on that node.

You are very welcome @quad99 and thanks for the feedback
01-05-2025 08:12 AM
Hi @quad99 ,
According to the configuration you provided, you tried to configured "mpls traffic-eng router-id Loopback0" before the interface lo0 was configured. You probably got an error message. Please configure "mpls traffic-eng router-id Loopback0" again under router ospf and you should see the information for 2.2.2.2 and 3.3.3.3 in the mpls traffic engineering database.
Regards,
01-05-2025 08:17 AM
Unfortunately not , first I configured the interfaces , then ospf.
01-05-2025 06:38 AM
under all LO add
ip ospf network point-to-point<<-
use LO as I mention before in explicit path
then wr config close lab and reopen again
check the tunnel state

Router# show mpls traffic-eng forwarding path-set brief
Router# show mpls traffic-eng forwarding path-set detail
if above not work share about of these command
NOTE:- last command with detail only work in IOS XR I check it
MHM
01-05-2025 06:59 AM
Still without any changes
My routers don't support both commands...
I'm running on 7200 Software (C7200-ADVENTERPRISEK9-M), Version 12.4(24)T5, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc3)
I'm attaching the project from gns as if anyone would like >> file.i o/H24F yCi4ViA8
