Module: MPLS-LDP-STD-MIB

OID (symbolic): MPLS-LDP-STD-MIB::mplsLdpEntityTransportAddrKind

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.2.1.10.166.4.1.2.3.1.16

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-create

Description: This specifies whether the loopback or interface address is to be used as the transport address in the transport address TLV of the hello message.

If the value is interface(1), then the IP address of the interface from which hello messages are sent is used as the transport address in the hello message.

Otherwise, if the value is loopback(2), then the IP address of the loopback interface is used as the transport address in the hello message.

What is mplsLdpEntityTransportAddrKind?

This OID configures whether this LDP entity advertises its interface address or its loopback address as the transport address in Hello message TLVs, defaulting to loopback. Admins typically leave this at loopback for stability, since a loopback address stays reachable even if a specific physical interface goes down.
