Hi

Thanks for your reply.
ButMartini says in trans-10.txt sec 5.4.2 that imposition router shall send
to disposition router a label mapping request and a label mapping request if
it wants to restart forwarding of packets with initial sequence number. Does
mean that label release and mapping messages?.

Hi Gowda,
          According to Martini draft the VC label MUST be distributed using
LDP in the
   downstream unsolicited mode .However, the label request operation  MUST
also be implemented.
To simulate this situation you need to send a Label release message to the
PE LSR after receiving the DU Label Mapping message. Then you can send the
Label request message. The PE LSR will respond with another Label Mapping
Message.Since the PE LSR acts in the DU mode you need to send a Label
release before sending a Label Request Message. However I am not sure what
you meant by 
Label mapping Request.

Regards,
Daipayan

Hi All

Do Martini drafts talks about label request?
What does that label mapping request means?
If I release the label (or withdraw) then I have to send this message. Am I
really requesting for a label in this situation?

Thanks & Regards,
