Remarks

Enter system view

Enter MPLS LDP view

mpls ldp

Configure a label

acceptance control policy

accept-label peer peer-id ip-prefix ip-prefix-name

Optional

Not configured by default.

Configure a label

advertisement control

policy

]

Required

Not configured by default.

For two neighboring LSRs, configuring a label acceptance control policy on the upstream LSR and
configuring a label advertisement control policy on the downstream LSR can achieve the same effect.
To reduce the network load, you are recommended to configure only label advertisement control
policies.

Maintaining LDP Sessions

Configuring BFD for MPLS LDP

MPLS itself cannot detect a neighbor failure or link failure in time. If communication between two LDP
remote peers fails, the LDP session will be down, and as a result, MPLS forwarding will fail. By
cooperating with bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD), MPLS LDP can be quickly aware of
communication failures between LDP peers, improving performances of existing MPLS networks.
