Abstract:
An LDP speaker negotiates the label advertisement mode with its LDP
peer at the time of session establishment. Although different
applications sharing the same LDP session may need different modes
of label distribution and advertisement, there is only one type of
label advertisement mode that is negotiated and used per LDP
session. This document clarifies the use and the applicability of
session's negotiated label advertisement mode, and categorizes LDP
applications into two broad categories of negotiated mode-bound and
mode-independent applications. The document also suggests an update
to RFC 5036 and RFC 4447 to remove any ambiquity and conflict in the
area of using correct label advertisement mode for a given
application.
