Traceroute in an MPLS environment is especially neat/crazy.

Consider: If the TTL expires halfway across the P cloud, how can a P router get the error back to the packet originator? The P router doesn't have customer routes, so he doesn't know how to reach the origin system. He also doesn't know which PE router originated the MPLS payload because MPLS tags don't specify anything about "source", only the FEC (analogous to destination).

When the TTL expires on an MPLS tagged payload, the "TTL exceeded" message is sent along the FEC in the same direction as the original packet, away from the system that needs to hear the message. When it finally reaches the end PE router, it gets wrapped back up and kicked it into the FEC for the system that needs to receive the message (the guy running traceroute).

Every line in the traceroute output represents a full trip across the MPLS P cloud.

I meant for MPLS to inject routing information not send the pay load :)

Will we see the results shortly after, or will judging take some time?

Ok, here's my solution using MPLS TE to take traffic from R1 -> R3 -> R2 over a tunnel, then from R2 -> R3 -> R4 over another tunnel, and then R4 -> R3 -> R5 over a third tunnel.

Code:
! ALL ROUTERS
mpls traffic-eng tunnels
!
router ospf 1
 mpls traffic-eng router-id Loopback0
 mpls traffic-eng area 0
 log-adjacency-changes
 network 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 area 0
!
! ALL FASTETHERNET INTERFACES
 mpls ip
 mpls traffic-eng tunnels
 ip rsvp bandwidth 512 512


Code:
! ROUTER 1
interface Tunnel1
 ip unnumbered Loopback0
 tunnel destination 10.1.7.1
 tunnel mode mpls traffic-eng
 tunnel mpls traffic-eng priority 4 4
 tunnel mpls traffic-eng bandwidth  128
 tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option 1 explicit name CREATIVE
 no routing dynamic
!
ip route 10.1.6.1 255.255.255.255 Tunnel1
!
ip explicit-path name CREATIVE enable
 next-address 10.1.8.1


Code:
! ROUTER 2
interface Loopback0
 ip address 10.1.7.1 255.255.255.255
!
interface Tunnel1
 ip unnumbered Loopback0
 tunnel destination 10.1.9.1
 tunnel mode mpls traffic-eng
 tunnel mpls traffic-eng priority 4 4
 tunnel mpls traffic-eng bandwidth  128
 tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option 1 explicit name CREATIVE
 no routing dynamic
!
ip route 10.1.6.1 255.255.255.255 Tunnel1
!
ip explicit-path name CREATIVE enable
 next-address 10.1.8.1


Code:
! ROUTER 3
interface Loopback0
 ip address 10.1.8.1 255.255.255.255


Code:
! ROUTER 4
interface Loopback0
 ip address 10.1.9.1 255.255.255.255
!
interface Tunnel1
 ip unnumbered Loopback0
 tunnel destination 10.1.6.1
 tunnel mode mpls traffic-eng
 tunnel mpls traffic-eng priority 4 4
 tunnel mpls traffic-eng bandwidth  128
 tunnel mpls traffic-eng path-option 1 explicit name CREATIVE
 no routing dynamic
!
ip route 10.1.6.1 255.255.255.255 Tunnel1
!
ip explicit-path name CREATIVE enable
 next-address 10.1.8.1


Code:
R1#traceroute 10.1.6.1

Type escape sequence to abort.
Tracing the route to 10.1.6.1

  1 10.1.2.2 [MPLS: Label 20 Exp 0] 72 msec 124 msec 140 msec
  2 10.1.3.1 48 msec 36 msec 60 msec
  3 10.1.3.2 [MPLS: Label 21 Exp 0] 60 msec 60 msec 136 msec
  4 10.1.4.1 72 msec 68 msec 40 msec
  5 10.1.4.2 [MPLS: Label 22 Exp 0] 148 msec 212 msec 108 msec
  6 10.1.5.1 180 msec 396 msec *

Ha! I used Ian's blog post and some Cisco docs. The hardest part was figuring out I couldn't do it with one tunnel b/c the path is detected as invalid b/c it loops back on itself. :)
