Label Distribution Protocol

Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) is a protocol in which routers capable of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) exchange label mapping information. Two routers with an established session are called LDP peers and the exchange of information is bi-directional.LDP is used to build and maintain LSP databases that are used to forward traffic through MPLS networks.
