Is there a way to configure MPLS TE Tunnel so as to establish through a least delay path ? Can delay be added as a constraint for Path calculation by CSPF.

RSTP states that "port roles are decoupled from port state". I am not able to completely understand this statement. The role of a port is determined earlier by the exchange of BPDUs prior to fixing the state of a port A port which assumes the role of...

Regarding TCN propagation towards the root switch, why shouldn't the switch sensing the topology change update directly all other switches in the STP instance. What is the logic behind sending TCN upstream towards the root switch and root switch in t...

What is hardware assisted NAT? What are its disadvantages, will it result in high CPU utilization

Why do we require a targeted LDP session over the established TE tunnel ? For this targeted LDP session, what will be the transport address / discovery interface ? Since TE LSP is unidirectional, what will happen to LDP session if TE tunnel on one si...

But MPLS TE requires a link-state IGP protocol to be deployed in the mpls domain. Is it possible that Pfr decide the best IGP path based on delay and then MPLS uses that path to establish TE tunnel ?

OSPF is the IGP. It is also used for information distribution for MPLS TE. Is it possible to combine, MPLS TE network with Pfr

Thank you Peter. That means, In RSTP the state of a port is not having a one-to-one relationship with the role of a port as that of in legacy STP. Can you also please clarify, how this decoupling helps better in faster convergence ?

Akash, Thank you for the clarification provided. So, Even for targeted LDP sessions, successful neighbor discovery (Unicast/UDP) must precede the TCP/646 sesssion for label binding advertisement.

Thank you Peter for the detailed clarification. I completely understand the logic behind that behaviour.
