In certain networks there is a dependency on edge-to-edge LSPs setup 
by LDP, e.g. networks that are used for MPLS VPN applications. For 
such applications it is not possible to rely on IP forwarding if the 
MPLS LSP is not operating appropriately. Blackholing of labeled 
traffic can occur in situations where the IGP is operational on a 
link but LDP is not operational on that link. While the link could 
still be used for IP forwarding, it is not useful for MPLS

LDP IGP Synchronization

forwarding, for example, MPLS VPN; BGP route free core; or IP 
address carried in the packet is out of the RFC1918 space. This 
document describes a mechanism to avoid traffic loss due to this 
condition without introducing any protocol changes.
