Table 1-5
Process received DLDP packets
Packet type
Processing procedure
If this neighbor entry does not exist on the
local device, DLDP creates the neighbor entry,
enables the entry aging timer, and switches to
the probe state.
Advertisement
packet
Extracts
neighbor
information
If the neighbor entry already exists on the local
device, DLDP updates the entry aging timer.
Flush packet
Deletes the neighbor entry from the local device
Creates the neighbor entry if this neighbor
entry does not exist on the local device.
Probe packet
Sends echo
packets
containing both
neighbor and its
own information
to the peer
If the neighbor entry already exists on the local
device, updates the entry aging timer.
No
Discards this echo packet
No
Discards this echo packet
Sets the neighbor flag bit
to bidirectional link
Echo packet
Checks
whether
the local
device is
in the
probe
state
Yes
Checks
whether
neighbor
information
in the
packet is
the same
as that on
the local
device
Yes
If all neighbors are in the
bidirectional link state,
DLDP switches from the
probe state to the
advertisement state, and
sets the echo waiting
timer to 0.
3) If no echo packet is received from the neighbor, DLDP performs the following
processing:
Table 1-6
Processing procedure when no echo packet is received from the neighbor
No echo packet received
from the neighbor
Processing procedure
In normal mode, no echo
packet is received when the
echo waiting timer expires.
In enhanced mode, no echo
packet is received when the
enhanced timer expires
DLDP switches to the
disable
state, outputs log and
tracking information, and sends flush packets.
Depending on the user-defined DLDP down mode,
DLDP disables the local port automatically or
prompts you to disable the port manually. DLDP
sends an RSY message and deletes the neighbor
entry.

DLDP works only when the link is up.
