Description: When attempting to establish a session with a given Peer, the given LDP Entity should send out the SNMP notification, 'mplsLdpInitSessionThresholdExceeded', when the number of Session Initialization messages sent exceeds this threshold.

The notification is used to notify an operator when this Entity and its Peer are possibly engaged in an endless sequence of messages as each NAKs the other's Initialization messages with Error Notification messages. Setting this threshold which triggers the notification is one way to notify the operator. The notification should be generated each time this threshold is exceeded and for every subsequent Initialization message which is NAK'd with an Error Notification message after this threshold is exceeded.

A value of 0 (zero) for this object indicates that the threshold is infinity, thus the SNMP notification will never be generated.

What is mplsLdpEntityInitSessionThreshold?

This OID configures how many session Initialization messages (0-100, defaulting to 8) can be sent to a peer before the mplsLdpInitSessionThresholdExceeded notification fires, with 0 meaning never notify, per RFC 3036 section 2.5.3. Admins use this to get alerted when this entity and a peer are stuck in a repeated Initialization-message rejection loop rather than establishing normally.
