4.4.- LDP Specification  

LDP message exchanges are accomplished by sending LDP Protocol Data Units (PDUs) over LDP session TCP connections. Each LDP PDU can carry one or more LDP messages. These messages need not be related to one another.
LDP PDUs
 
Each LDP PDU is an LDP header followed by one or more LDP messages. The LDP header is:
 

 
where:
 
  1. Version
      Two octet integer indicating the version number. This version is 1.
     
     
  2. PDU Length :
      Two octet integer specifying the total length of this PDU, excluding the Version and PDU Length field.
     
     
  3. LDP Identifier :
      Six octet field that uniquely identifies the label space of the sending LSR for which this PDU applies. (LSR Id + Label space Id).
