To whom does a PE-router advertise labels, when operating in the default frame mode?
A.
The PE-router advertises a label to all of its neighbors.
B.
The PE-router only advertises labels to its neighbors in the MPLS domain.
C.
The PE-router only advertises labels to its neighbors outside the MPLS domain.
D.
The PE-router does not advertise labels.
Label advertisement is only done by the core LSR.
Explanation:
The Ingress Edge-LSR receives an IP packet, classifies the packet into a forward equivalence
class (FEC), and labels the packet with the outgoing label stack corresponding to the FEC. For
unicast destination-based IP routing, the FEC corresponds to a destination subnet and the packet
classification is a traditional layer 3 lookup in the forwarding table.MPLS and VPN Architectures (Ciscopress) page 25
