Hi Keegan, Thanks for your reply and explaining all the caveats of mpls signaling protocols. First of all, I am not gonna use this kind of setup in real environment. I am doing all of this in order to learn how to integrate two different labeling protocols in various circumstances. I don't wana run same signaling protocol on the PEs, so PE1 will run LDP and PE2 will run RSVP. Since PE2 is not gonna run LDP at all, so I can't use ldp-tunneling here either. I could have use bgp labeled on top of ldp and rsvp but was wondering if there are any other workarounds. Second, will it work for 6pe if you use bpg labeled mpls signaled path as an next-hop for 6pe. ThanksAndrew

They only point to a next hop and not a destination so you don't have to exchange labels between two routing protocols in the same way you would routes. You only have to configure the routers at the edge of each topology so that it runs both protocols. That being said RSVP adds a caveat. If you try to form a RSVP LSP that traverses a router that isn't running RSVP it will either fail to form or re-route. LDP does not have this constraint and just advertises labels to directly connected peers. To bridge between the two protocols I would configure p3 (and every router at the edge of your RSVP domain) as a PE running both LDP and RSVP. You can terminate the RSVP LSP's there. Since it's a PE it should be able to match the L3VPN information advertised by pe2 via BGP with the LDP labels it's advertising. You could also turn on LDP on all of your routers. Any IP that doesn't have an RSVP next hop failover to LDP and vise versa. This is easier to manage since it will be obvious which paths use LDP and which ones use RSVP. The ultimate solution is probably to run only one label protocol though. 2012/4/29 Uzi Be <go...@live.com> hi, I was just testing out to swap labels between two different signaling protocols (ldp and rsvp). lets say we have two different network, one is running ldp and the other one is running rsvp (same AS, so no inter-as options). ce - pe1 - p1 - p2 - p3 -p4 -pe2 - ce so pe1 - p1 - p2 -p3 are running rsvp and p4-pe2 are running ldp, and edge ce's are using l3vpn. what are the options to have a labeled path from pe2 to pe1 (considering that pe1 is not going to run ldp protocol, and pe2 can't use rsvp so ldp tunneling is not an option here). thanks in advance for your comments.
