Configure one of them as required.
By default, ICMP TTL exceeded
messages for MPLS packets with
only one-level of label travel along
the local IP routes.
This configuration does not take
effect when the MPLS packets carry
multiple levels of labels. ICMP TTL
exceeded messages for such MPLS
packets always travel along the
LSPs.

Configuring LDP GR
MPLS has two separate planes: the forwarding plane and the control plane. Using this feature, LDP
Graceful Restart (GR) preserves the LFIB information when the signaling protocol or control plane fails, so
that LSRs can still forward packets according to LFIB, ensuring continuous data transmission.
A switch that participates in a GR process plays either of the following two roles:
•
GR restarter, the switch that gracefully restarts due to a manually configured command or a fault. It
must be GR-capable.
•
GR helper, neighbor of the GR restarter. A GR helper maintains the neighbor relationship with the
GR restarter and helps the GR restarter restore its LFIB information. A GR helper must be
GR-capable.
