Supported LDP Standards

The Junos OS substantially supports the following RFCs, which define standards for LDP.

• RFC 3036, LDP Specification

  For the following features described in the indicated sections of the RFC, the Junos OS supports one of the possible modes but not the other:

  • Label distribution control (section 2.6.1): Ordered mode is supported, but not Independent mode.
  • Label retention (section 2.6.2): Liberal mode is supported, but not Conservative mode.
  • Label advertisement (section 2.6.3): Downstream Unsolicited mode is supported, but not Downstream on Demand mode.
• RFC 3212, Constraint-Based LSP Setup using LDP
• RFC 3478, Graceful Restart Mechanism for Label Distribution Protocol

The following RFCs do not define standards, but provide information about LDP. The IETF classifies them as “Informational.”

• RFC 3215, LDP State Machine
• RFC 5443, LDP IGP Synchronization
