Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), described in RFC 3031, is a method for forwarding packets that uses short, fixed-length values carried by packets, called labels, to determine packet next hops. A fundamental concept in MPLS is that two Label Switching Routers (LSRs) must agree on the meaning of the labels used to forward traffic between and through them. This common understanding is achieved by using a set of procedures, called a Label Distribution Protocol (as described in RFC 3036) , by which one LSR informs another of label bindings it has made. One such protocol, called LDP, is used by LSRs to distribute labels to support MPLS forwarding along normally routed paths. This document reports on a survey of LDP implementations conducted in August 2002 as part of the process of advancing LDP from Proposed to Draft Standard.Table of Contents

1. Introduction
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a method for forwarding packets that uses short fixed-length values carried by packets, called labels, to determine packet next hops [RFC3031]. A fundamental MPLS concept is that two Label Switching Routers (LSRs) must agree on the meaning of the labels used to forward traffic between and through them. This common understanding is achieved by using a set of procedures by which one LSR informs another of label bindings it has made. Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) specifies a set of procedures LSRs use to distribute labels to support MPLS forwarding along normally routed paths. LDP was specified originally by [RFC3036]. The current LDP specification is [RFC5036], which obsoletes [RFC3036]. [RFC3037] describes the applicability of LDP. This document reports on a survey of LDP implementations conducted in August 2002 as part of the process of advancing LDP from Proposed to Draft standard. This section highlights some of the survey results. Section 2 presents the survey results for LDP features, and Appendix A presents the survey results in full. Appendix B contains a copy of the survey form.1.1. The LDP Survey Form
The LDP implementation survey requested the following information about LDP implementation: - Responding organization. Provisions were made to accommodate organizations that wished to respond anonymously. - The status, availability, and origin of the LDP implementation. - The LDP features implemented and for each whether it was tested against an independent implementation. The survey form listed each LDP feature defined by [RFC3036] and requested one of the following as the status of the feature: t: Tested against another independent implementation y: Implemented but not tested against independent implementation n: Not implemented x: Not applicable to this type of implementation
In addition, for the 'n' status, the responder could optionally provide the following additional information: s: RFC specification inadequate, unclear, or confusing u: Utility of feature unclear r: Feature not required for feature set implemented This document uses the following conventions for reporting survey results for a feature: At By Cn indicates: - A responders implemented the feature and tested it against another independent implementation (t) - B responders implemented the feature but have not tested it against an independent implemented (y) - C responders did not implement the feature (n) (Ds Eu Fr) indicates optional responses: - D responders thought the RFC 3036 specification of the feature inadequate, unclear, or confusing (s). - E responders thought the utility of the feature unclear (u). - F responders considered the feature not required for the feature set implemented (combines x and r).1.2. LDP Survey Highlights
This section presents some highlights from the implementation survey. - There were 12 responses to the survey, 2 of which were anonymous. At the time of the survey, 10 of the implementation were available as products and 2 were in beta test. Eleven of the implementations were available for sale; the remaining implementation had been done by a company no longer in business. - Seven implementations were independently written from the RFC 3036 specification. Four implementations combined purchased or free code with code written by the responder. One of the implementations was fully purchased code ported to the vendor's platform. - Every LDP feature in the survey questionnaire was implemented by at least 2 respondents.
- Each of the 8 LDP Label Distribution Modes implemented and tested: 8t 2y 2n DU, Ord Cntl, Lib reten 7t 1y 4n DU, Ind Cntl, Lib reten 7t 1y 4n DoD Ord Cntl, Cons reten 6t 1y 5n DoD, Ind Cntl, Cons reten 6t 1y 5n DU, Ord Cntl, Cons reten 6t 0y 6n DU, Ind Cntl, Cons reten 4t 3y 5n DoD, Ord Cntl, Lib reten 4t 2y 6n DoD, Ind Cntl, Lib reten - Platform and Interface Label Spaces were both widely supported. 12t 0y 0n Per platform 7t 1y 4n Per interface - LDP Basic and Targeted Sessions were both widely supported. 12t 0y 0n Basic/Directly Connected 11t 1y 0n Targeted - The TCP MD5 Option for LDP session TCP connections was not widely implemented. 3t 1y 8n2. Survey Results for LDP Features
This section presents the survey results for LDP features using the notational convention described in Section 1.2. It omits the optional status responses (s, u, r); complete results may be found in Appendix A.
