disable mpls ldp loop-detection

disable mpls ldp loop-detection

Description

Disables LDP loop detection on the switch.

Syntax Description

This command has no arguments or variables.

Default

Disabled.

Usage Guidelines

Loop detection provides a mechanism for finding looping LSPs and for preventing Label Request messages from looping in the presence of non-merge-capable LSRs. The mechanism makes use of Path Vector and Hop Count TLVs carried by Label Request and Label Mapping messages.

When LDP loop detection is disabled, LDP does not attempt to detect routing loops.

Example

The following command globally disables LDP loop detection on the switch:

disable mpls ldp loop-detection
