MPLS Containment
An object’s Containment view appears in a dialog box that organizes the information for the object into tab pages and tables.
The intent of the Containment view is to allow users to examine detailed component
topology of an individual object. The
Global Console
retrieves the topology information from the Global Manager
and from the underlying
Domain Managers. If an underlying Domain Manager is not attached to the console, the console automatically establishes a connection to the Domain Manager by using the user’s login ID.In an deployment, the
Global Console
retrieves the Containment topology information from the Global Manager
, from , and from IP Availability Manager
. As an example, if you want to examine the LSP hops of a TE LSP or an LDP LSP, you can do so by opening a Containment
dialog box for the LSP. The console will retrieve the LSP-hop information from the underlying application, specifically, from the underlying MPLS Topology Server
