To configure PW/VLL labels, the PW/VLL service must be configured. PW/VLL labels can be configured manually as statically allocated labels using any unused label within the static label range. Pseudowire/VLL labels can also be dynamically assigned by targeted LDP. Statically allocated labels and dynamically allocated labels are designated differently in the label information base.
PW/VLL labels are uniquely identified against a 7705 SAR, not against an interface or module.
As defined in RFC 3036, LDP Specification, and RFC 4447 Pseudowire Setup and Maintenance Using the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP), label distribution is handled in the Downstream Unsolicited (DU) mode. Generic Label TLV is used for all setup and maintenance operations.
