LDP default route FEC.
Hi,

What is a router supposed to do on receiving a Label Request with a FEC tlv for a default route (0.0.0.0/0)? Is it supposed to send a Notification with status "No Route" or send a Label Mapping for the same? If the latter is true, what label does it use?

Thanks,
Bageshri

LDP default route FEC. [ In reply to ]
JUNOS doesn't process Label Request messages, because it only operates in

Downstream Unsolicited
Ordered Control
Liberal Retention

modes

and JUNOS doesn't support "label-controlled ATM/FR links"
(where the vpi/vci or dlci space is used for carrying labels),
therefore any ldp Session to a JUNOS router must run in
Downstream Unsolicited mode... or not come up at all.
