enable mpls ldp bgp-routes
Description
Enables LDP to use IP prefixes learned from BGP when establishing LDP LSPs.
Syntax Description
This command has no arguments or variables.
Default
Enabled.
Usage Guidelines
This command allows LDP to use routes learned via BGP when establishing LDP LSPs. Because each established LSP consumes internal resources, it is recommended that this setting be used only in BGP environments where the number of BGP routes is controlled.
When disabled, LDP does not establish LSPs to routes learned via BGP, thus reducing the internal resources used by LDP. Note that MPLS LSPs can still be used to transport packets to routes learned via BGP through the use of the enable bgp mpls-next-hop command.
Example
The following command enables the use of BGP routes by LDP:
enable mpls ldp bgp-routes
History
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 11.6.
Platform Availability
