Implementing Cisco Enterprise Advanced Routing and Services (ENARSI) — Question 496

Which router takes an active role between two LDP neighbors when initiating LDP session negotiation and LDP TCP connection establishment?

Answer options

• A. with one interface in the MPLS backbone
• B. with the higher IP address
• C. with the lowest IP address
• D. with the larger number of LDP TCP neighbors

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The router with the higher IP address takes the initiative in establishing the LDP session and TCP connection. The router with the lowest IP address is actually the passive participant in this scenario. Options A and D are not relevant to the LDP negotiation process.
