BGP-AD and Target LDP (T-LDP) Interaction

BGP is responsible for discovering the location of VSIs that share the same VPLS membership.
LDP protocol is responsible for setting up the pseudowire infrastructure between the related VSIs
by exchanging service specific labels between them.
Once the local VPLS information is provisioned in the local PE, the related PEs participating in
the same VPLS are identified through BGP AD exchanges. A list of far-end PEs is generated and
triggers the creation, if required, of the necessary T-LDP sessions to these PEs and the exchange of
the service specific VPN labels. The steps for the BGP AD discovery process and LDP session
establishment and label exchange are shown in
Key:
1. Establish I-BGP connectivity RR.
2. Configure VPN (10) on edge node (PE3).
