[mpls-linux-general] Questions regarding ldp_linux

[Paul N. <pau...@ya...>]

Dear Mr Leu,

    I have encountered a problem when using linux-port for LDP. I have =
posted this question on the list a while back, but there seem to be no =
reply. Perharps you can help me with it?

    I have 2 PCs connected via Ethernet. I performed the steps as stated =
in the README. Precise details of the order of my steps are in my =
earlier post.

    When done, the 2 LSRs seem to be exchanging labels. Using Ethereal =
to sniff on eth0, I can detect "Hello", "Initialization", "Address", =
"Label Mapping" msgs being exchanged. However, when I do a "cat =
/proc/net/mpls_*", the files seem empty. I am unsure what the problem =
is.. really, as I followed the README to the dot.=20

    Maybe you can shed some light to this? I will really appreciate it!

    Also, I haven't tried it yet... but will ldp_linux work to exchange =
labels between a Linux-LSR and an ATM-LSR, using conventional multicast =
peer discovery?

    Thanks a lot! Will be looking forward to your reply.

Regards,

Paul
