| IP in links | The incoming IP links |
| Name | A user-defined name (typically short) that can be assigned to this element |
| MPLS-TE Admin weight | The administrative weight assigned to the interface for MPLS-TE tunnel path calculations. Used when the tunnel is configured to dynamically optimize the tunnel path using the CSPF algorithm |
