The MPLS Manager installation directory contains the configuration directories that are shown in Configuration directories for MPLS Manager.
BASEDIR, which is not an environment variable, is used in documentation to represent the top-level directory structure of an VMware Smart Assurance product installation. For the VMware Smart Assurance MPLS Management Suite, BASEDIR represents <root_dir>/MPLS.
Each configuration directory in Figure 6 contains the bootstrap and configuration files for its associated MPLS or VPN server. The --config option in a server startup command points to the appropriate configuration directory:
-
The --config=mpls-t option in an MPLS Topology Server startup command points to the bootstrap and configuration files in the mpls-t directory. The default name of the MPLS Topology Server is INCHARGE-MPLS-TOPOLOGY.
-
The --config=mpls-m option in an MPLS Monitoring Server startup command points to the bootstrap and configuration files in the mpls-m directory. The default name of the MPLS Monitoring Server is INCHARGE-MPLS-MONITORING.
-
The --config=mpls-a option in an MPLS Analysis Server startup command points to the bootstrap and configuration files in the mpls-a directory. The default name of the MPLS Analysis Server is INCHARGE-MPLS-ANALYSIS.
-
The --config=vpn-tagging option in an MPLS VPN-Tagging Server startup command points to the bootstrap and configuration files in the vpn-tagging directory. The default name of the optional MPLS VPN-Tagging Server is VPN-TAGGING.
The bootstrap and configuration files for an MPLS server or the MPLS VPN-Tagging Server determine the role of the server and set up the environment for the server.
