is not applicable. In this case, you can configure the undo ttl expiration pop command on these devices

so that the devices use the second method.

NOTE:

For more information about HoVPN and nested VPN, see the chapter “MPLS L3VPN configuration.”

Follow these steps to configure the device to send back an ICMP TTL exceeded message for a received

MPLS TTL expired packet:

Optional
Configure one of them as required.
By default, ICMP TTL exceeded
messages for MPLS packets with

only one-level of label travel along

the local IP routes.
This configuration does not take

effect when the MPLS packets carry
multiple levels of labels. ICMP TTL

exceeded messages for such MPLS

packets always travel along the

LSPs.

Configuring LDP GR

MPLS has two separate planes: the forwarding plane and the control plane. Using this feature, LDP

Graceful Restart (GR) preserves the LFIB information when the signaling protocol or control plane fails, so

that LSRs can still forward packets according to LFIB, ensuring continuous data transmission.
A device that participates in a GR process plays either of the following two roles:

GR restarter, the router that gracefully restarts due to a manually configured command or a fault. It
must be GR-capable.

GR helper, neighbor of the GR restarter. A GR helper maintains the neighbor relationship with the
GR restarter and helps the GR restarter restore its LFIB information. A GR helper must be

GR-capable.
