Configuring Conditional label advertisment is considered to be an optional step in MPLS configuration procedure. By default, a router will generate and propagate labels for all networks that it has in the routing table. If only label switching for a limited number of networks is required (for example, only for router loopback addresses), configure the conditional label advertising. By default, labels for all destinations are announced to all LDP/TDP neighbors.Conditional label advertisment enables you to selectively advertise some labels to some LDP/TDP neighbors. Note that it can work only over frame-mode interfaces. You can use it doing the following router(config)#tag-switching advertise-tags for net-acl [ to tdp-acl ] Where as: Net-ACL the IP ACL that selects the destinations for which the labels will be generated. TDP-ACL the IP ACL that selects the TDP neighbors that will receive the labels. >can someone explain the significance of down bit with respect to ospf Down bit is a mechanism that was introduced to prevent route redistribution loops between OSPF running between PE- and CE-routers and multi-protocol BGP running between PE-routers Down bit is an additional bit that has been introduced in the Options field of the OSPF LSA header. PE-routers set the Down bit when redistributing routes from MP-BGP into OSPF. PE-routers never redistribute OSPF routes with Down bit set into MP-BGP. The PE-router that redistributes the MP-BGP route as OSPF route into the OSPF topology database sets the down bit. Other PE-routers use the down bit to prevent this route from being redistributed back into MP-BGP. >maximum how many ospf process can I run on a PE router 32 ( This number is not scalable at all with expected many VRFs configured on the PE router). In general it is not recommended to use OSPF as a routing protocol between the PE & CE because of the limitations that should be taken care of.
