In MPLS network, we often adopt LDP as the label distribution protocol in an MPLS domain to set up LSPs, this slide introduces the configuration of how to establish LDP sessions and how to

perform label mapping, release, and so on.

LDP Configuration Commands

Enable LDP
[Quidway] mpls ldp
Enable mpls ldp in system view mpls ldp enable LDP for a public instance or for a VPN instance. Use this command after the MPLS LSR ID has been configured and MPLS is globally enabled.

[Quidway-Serial1] mpls ldp

Enable mpls ldp in interface view

LDP Configuration Commands

Configure Remote LDP [Quidway]
mpls ldp remote-peer peer-name
Enter MPLS LDP remote peer view.

[Quidway-mpls-ldp-remote-huawei] remote-ip ip-address

Configure remote peer IP address There is only one LDP session between two LSRs, and the priority of local LDP is higher than remote LDP Up to now, remote LDP is only used to transmit message for L2VPN

LDP Configuration Commands

Configure Parameters for LDP Session [Quidway-Serial1] mpls ldp advertisement { dod | du }
The default label advertisement mode is DU.

[Quidway-Serial1] mpls ldp timer keepalive-hold seconds

Configure the session hold timer. By default, the keepalive hold value is 45 seconds for both local and remote sessions.

LDP Configuration Commands

Configure Label Distribution and Retention Mode
[Quidway] label-distribution { independent | ordered }
Configure label distribution control mode.

label-retention { liberal | conservative }

Configure label retention mode. By default, label distribution control mode is ordered; label retention mode is liberal; re-advertising labels in DU mode is enabled.

LDP Configuration Commands

Configure Loop Detection [Quidway-mpls-ldp]
loop-detect hops-count hop-number path-vectors pv-number
Configuring Loop Detection By default, loop detection is disabled. To perform loop detection for the MPLS domain, you must configure loop detection on all LSRs. Loop detection includes two modes, the maximum hop count mode and the path vector mode.

LDP Configuration Commands

Configure LDP MD5 Authentication [Quidway-mpls-ldp] md5-password { plain | cipher } peer-lsr-id password

Configuring LDP MD5 Authentication By default, the MD5 authentication is disabled. To improve the security of LDP sessions, MD5 authentication can be used for the setup of TCP connections used by LDP.
