LDP Session Stuck in Connecting After an IS-IS Level Change

PE-1 (lo0 10.255.0.1) and PE-2 (lo0 10.255.0.2) are directly connected over ge-0/0/0/0.0 in 10.0.12.0/30 and both run IS-IS plus LDP. During a maintenance window an engineer set the IS-IS level on PE-2's core-facing interface to level 1 only; PE-1's interface is still level 2 only.

Voice Quality Collapse Because Video Is Being Classified as EF

An MX PE sells a 10 Gbps IP transit port on ge-0/0/1 to an enterprise. CoS is a single-level design: a DSCP classifier maps EF (46) to forwarding class ef , AF41 to af41 , and everything else to be ; the ef scheduler is strict-high with a transmit-rate ceiling of 500 Mbps, af41 gets 2 Gbps, and be takes the remainder.
