Targetted LDP Session

[susleman]

Hi,

I have scenario on targetted LDP session as follow

R1-----R2-----R3----R4

The interfaces of the routers are not enabled with mpls. If I configure targetted ldp on router R1 to R4, and i create the vrf and distributed the vpn routes via MP-BGP on both routers. Can I do vrf ping from each vrf on both routers ? I think it wont work because mpls will be failed to be routed on R2 and R3. is this correct ?

anyone can advise me ?

regards

Hi,

MPLS must be enabled on forwarding plane for end to end ping, otherwise you can use MPLSoverGRE to make it functional in your scenario.

You are absolutely right, it will not work because LDP is only local to router and your forwarding will not happen.
