Source-to-leaf sub-LSP

The P2MP LSP topology as observed in

Figure

10

consists of multiple point-to-point LSPs that

originate from the source device and terminate at a destination device or a leaf. These LSPs are
known as source-to-leaf (S2L) sub-LSPs. These S2L sub-LSPs can either be signaled in individual
Path and Resv messages, or can be combined into a small number of messages.

NOTE

Brocade devices support only one S2L signaling per Path message and reject Path messages if
there are more than one S2L LSPs from other vendor routers.

Figure

indicates three S2L sub-LSPs — S2L1, S2L2, and S2L3, in a P2MP tunnel.
