To facilitate the establishment of Label Switched Paths (LSPs) that
would span multiple IGP areas in a given Autonomous System (AS), this
document describes a new optional Longest-Match Label Mapping
Procedure for the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP).

This procedure allows the use of a label if the Forwarding Equivalence
Class (FEC) Element matches an entry in the Routing Information Base
(RIB).  Matching is defined by an IP longest-match search and does not
mandate an exact match.  [STANDARDS TRACK]
