LDP Extensions for Multi-Topology
Abstract
Multi-Topology (MT) routing is supported in IP networks with the use
of MT-aware IGPs. In order to provide MT routing within
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label Distribution Protocol
(LDP) networks, new extensions are required.
This document describes the LDP protocol extensions required to
support MT routing in an MPLS environment.
