The Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) Implementation Survey Results

Abstract
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), described in RFC 3031, is a method for forwarding packets that uses short, fixed-length values carried by packets, called labels, to determine packet next hops. A fundamental concept in MPLS is that two Label Switching Routers (LSRs) must agree on the meaning of the labels used to forward traffic between and through them. This common understanding is achieved by using a set of procedures, called a Label Distribution Protocol (as described in RFC 3036) , by which one LSR informs another of label bindings it has made. One such protocol, called LDP, is used by LSRs to distribute labels to support MPLS forwarding along normally routed paths. This document reports on a survey of LDP implementations conducted in August 2002 as part of the process of advancing LDP from Proposed to Draft Standard.

Introduction
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a method for forwarding packets that uses short fixed-length values carried by packets, called labels, to determine packet next hops RFC3031. A fundamental MPLS concept is that two Label Switching Routers (LSRs) must agree on the meaning of the labels used to forward traffic between and through them. This common understanding is achieved by using a set of procedures by which one LSR informs another of label bindings it has made.
Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) specifies a set of procedures LSRs use to distribute labels to support MPLS forwarding along normally routed paths. LDP was specified originally by RFC3036. The current LDP specification is RFC5036, which obsoletes RFC3036. RFC3037 describes the applicability of LDP.
This document reports on a survey of LDP implementations conducted in August 2002 as part of the process of advancing LDP from Proposed to Draft standard.
This section highlights some of the survey results. Section 2 presents the survey results for LDP features, and Appendix A presents the survey results in full. Appendix B contains a copy of the survey form.
The LDP Survey Form
The LDP implementation survey requested the following information about LDP implementation:
- Responding organization. Provisions were made to accommodate
organizations that wished to respond anonymously.
- The status, availability, and origin of the LDP implementation.
- The LDP features implemented and for each whether it was tested
against an independent implementation. The survey form listed each LDP feature defined by RFC3036 and requested one of the following as the status of the feature:
t: Tested against another independent implementation
y: Implemented but not tested against independent
implementation
n: Not implemented
x: Not applicable to this type of implementation
In addition, for the 'n' status, the responder could optionally provide the following additional information:
s: RFC specification inadequate, unclear, or confusing
u: Utility of feature unclear
r: Feature not required for feature set implemented
This document uses the following conventions for reporting survey results for a feature:
At By Cn indicates:
- A responders implemented the feature and tested it against
another independent implementation (t)
- B responders implemented the feature but have not tested it
against an independent implemented (y)
- C responders did not implement the feature (n)
(Ds Eu Fr) indicates optional responses:
- D responders thought the RFC 3036 specification of the feature inadequate, unclear, or confusing (s). - E responders thought the utility of the feature unclear (u). - F responders considered the feature not required for the feature set implemented (combines x and r).
LDP Survey Highlights
This section presents some highlights from the implementation survey.
- There were 12 responses to the survey, 2 of which were
anonymous. At the time of the survey, 10 of the implementation
were available as products and 2 were in beta test. Eleven of
the implementations were available for sale; the remaining
implementation had been done by a company no longer in
business.
- Seven implementations were independently written from the RFC
3036 specification. Four implementations combined purchased or
free code with code written by the responder.
One of the implementations was fully purchased code ported to
the vendor's platform.
- Every LDP feature in the survey questionnaire was implemented
by at least 2 respondents.
- Each of the 8 LDP Label Distribution Modes implemented and
tested:
8t 2y 2n DU, Ord Cntl, Lib reten
7t 1y 4n DU, Ind Cntl, Lib reten
7t 1y 4n DoD Ord Cntl, Cons reten
6t 1y 5n DoD, Ind Cntl, Cons reten
6t 1y 5n DU, Ord Cntl, Cons reten
6t 0y 6n DU, Ind Cntl, Cons reten
4t 3y 5n DoD, Ord Cntl, Lib reten
4t 2y 6n DoD, Ind Cntl, Lib reten
- Platform and Interface Label Spaces were both widely supported.
12t 0y 0n Per platform
7t 1y 4n Per interface
- LDP Basic and Targeted Sessions were both widely supported.
12t 0y 0n Basic/Directly Connected
11t 1y 0n Targeted
- The TCP MD5 Option for LDP session TCP connections was not
widely implemented.

Survey Results for LDP Features
This section presents the survey results for LDP features using the notational convention described in Section 1.2. It omits the optional status responses (s, u, r); complete results may be found in Appendix A.
