for VPN 1 connected to CE 2), PE 1 uses the VPNv4 route as the primary link, and the IPv4 route as
the backup link.
Figure 70 Network diagram
Configure BFD for LSPs or MPLS TE tunnels on PE 1 to detect the connectivity of the public tunnel
from PE 1 to PE 2. When the tunnel operates correctly, traffic from CE 1 to CE 2 goes through the
path CE 1—PE 1—PE 2—CE 2. When the tunnel fails, the traffic goes through the path CE 1—PE
1—CE 2.
In this scenario, PE 1 is responsible for primary link detection and traffic switchover.
