There are situations when there is a need for performing consistency
checks for LDP binding state (address/label bindings) exchanged
between LDP speakers. For instance, a state refresh may be required
to detect and purge stale bindings received by an LDP speaker, which
have resulted from an in-service software upgrade. This document
specifies mechanics that allow a sender LDP speaker to enclose the
initial binding advertisements (or re-advertisements) between
explicit START and END of binding markers, thus helping the
receiving LDP speaker to detect and purge any extra/stale binding
state previously learnt from the sender. In addition to the
definition of new LDP Notification message status codes for bindings
refresh, this document also extends LDP base specification by
introducing the concept of "Wildcard Address" and a new "Wildcard
Address Request" message.
