Notification Messages
Notification messages provide advisory information and signal error information. LDP sends notification messages to report errors and other events of interest. There are two kinds of LDP notification messages:
- Error notifications, which signal fatal errors. If a router or switch receives an error notification from a peer for an LDP session, it terminates the LDP session by closing the TCP transport connection for the session and discarding all label mappings learned through the session.
- Advisory notifications, which pass information to a router or switch about the LDP session or the status of some previous message received from the peer.
