.Sh NAME
.Nm mpip
.Nd MPLS IP layer 2 pseudowire
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd "pseudo-device mpip"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
interface is used to create an MPLS IP layer 2 tunnel between two points.
.Pp
An
.Nm
interface can be created at runtime using the
.Sy ifconfig Nm Ns Ar N Cm create
command, or by setting up a
.Xr hostname.if 5
configuration file for
.Xr netstart 8 .
The interface itself can be configured with
.Xr ifconfig 8 .
.Pp
The local MPLS label, the remote MPLS label and neighbor, use of
pseudowire control words, or flow-aware transport are normally
configured after negotiation with a remote system using
.Xr ldpd 8 ,
but it is also possible to configure them manually using
.Xr ifconfig 8 .
.Sh EXAMPLES
Create a pseudowire with local label 20 and remote label 21 on
neighbor 10.254.0.1:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# ifconfig mpip5 create
# ifconfig mpip5 mplslabel 20 pweneighbor 21 10.254.0.1
# ifconfig mpip5 up
.Ed
.Pp
Disable the use of the Pseudowire Emulation Edge-to-Edge (PWE3)
Control Word, and enable the use of a Flow label for Flow-Aware
Transport of Pseudowires:
.Bd -literal -offset indent
# ifconfig mpip5 -pwecw pwefat
.Ed
