The Generalized TTL Security Mechanism (GTSM) for the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP)
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Generalized TTL Security Mechanism (GTSM) describes a generalized use of a packet’s Time to Live (TTL) (IPv4) or Hop Limit (IPv6) to verify that the packet was sourced by a node on a connected link, thereby protecting the router’s IP control plane from CPU utilization-based attacks. This technique improves security and is used by many protocols. This document defines the GTSM use for the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP).

A number of enhancements to the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) have been proposed. Some have been implemented, and some are advancing toward standardization. It is likely that additional enhancements will be proposed in the future. This document defines a mechanism for advertising LDP enhancements at session initialization time, as well as a mechanism to enable and disable enhancements after...

MPLS is the pioneer in Service Provider Networks. Every service provider use MPLS in its core network for fast label switching. This paper explains MPLS and its signaling protocols i.e. LDP, CR-LDP, RSVP, RSVP-TE. This paper explains every signaling protocol that is used in Multiprotocol Label Switching environment. This paper explains differences between MPLS signaling protocols on the basis o...
متن کاملRecovery from control plane failures in the CR-LDP signalling protocol
The Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) needs to recover its state information after a control plane failure, so that the established connections in the data plane are not disrupted by any new connection set-up. We propose a backup mechanism to store the LDP state information in an upstream neighbour node. The backup LDP state information is synchronized with the original LDP state information in...
متن کاملGraceful Restart Mechanism for Label Distribution Protocol
This document describes a mechanism that helps to minimize the negative effects on MPLS traffic caused by Label Switching Router’s (LSR’s) control plane restart, specifically by the restart of its Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) component, on LSRs that are capable of preserving the MPLS forwarding component across the restart. The mechanism described in this document is applicable to all LSRs...
