Abstract:
Historically MPLS label distribution was driven by session oriented
protocols. In order to obtain a particular routers label binding for
a given destination FEC one needs to have first an established
session with that node.
This document describes a mechanism to distribute FEC/label mappings
through flooding protocols. Flooding protocols publish their objects
for an unknown set of receivers, therefore one can efficiently scale
label distribution for use cases where the receiver of label
information is not directly connected.
Application of this technique are found in the field of backup
(Bypass, R-LFA) routing, Label switched path stitching, egress
protection, explicit routing and egress ASBR link selection.
