Cisco router configuration (mpls)

by fmherr . Updated 17 years, 8 months ago

Hello,

I’m learning how to configure Cisco routers to enable bgp/mpls VPNs and I have a few questions.
– As long as I read, IOS has support to MPLS since version 12.1. I have a router 1721 with IOS 12.3. I was trying to configure MPLS, but the router doesn’t recognize mpls commands, like “mpls ip”. I thought once the IOS version supports MPLS, it doesn’t matter which router it is running. Am I wrong? Both router and IOS must support MPLS?
– I am trying to access the router using telnet. I used the following commands to allow Telnet connections to the router:
aaa new-model
username cisco password 0 cisco
line vty 0 4
transport input telnet

and I associated an IP number to the router name:
ip host routername 192.168.1.45

but, when I try to connect the router, appears a message of time out (remote host not responding)

Some clues?

Thanks in advance for any help.
Fernando.
