Juniper LDP issue.
Hi,

I am trying run some LDP conformance tests against a Juniper M10(Junos 6.0) on Ethernet interfaces. The basic tests fail because of the Initialization message sent by Juniper contains the standard CSP TLV & then an unknown TLV(type 0x8503) with some 14 bytes after it. I have not been able to figure out what this tlv is. It will be helpful if anyone could help me with this.

Thank you,
Bageshri

Juniper LDP issue. [ In reply to ]
Bageshri,

type 0x8503 is really the Fault Tolerant TLV (503) with the TLV's U-bit
set... hence 0x8503.

So the juniper router is probably configured with [edit routing-options
graceful-restart].

However, since the U-bit for that TLV is set, your test gear should just
silently disregard it
and process the Init message as if that TLV didn't exist...

See section 3.3 of the ldp rfc (3036) for more info on ldp TLV formats and
expected interpretation of the U-bit.
