Abstract

This document describes two types of situations where VPN and non-VPN traffic dependent on label forwarding can be blackholed despite the use of LDP OSPF synchronization which helps minimize such blackholing. Ways of mitigating these situations are also discussed. Here, by VPN is meant a layer 3, MPLS-based VPN.
