Allows you to query the route with CR-LDP. It also allows you to query the exact labels used at every hop and in the case of a SONET/SDH trail will give you down to the timeslot level. You can also query available bandwidth on the traversed interfaces.

    Although both CR-LDP and RSVP-TE provides similar functionalities, but one
    significant reason why we would like to run both the protocols on the same
    interface can be that TE-RSVP supports IP record route option using its record
    route objects.But CR-LDP doesn't support IP record route option.
