The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

The HA Support for MLDP feature enables Cisco Multicast Label Distribution Protocol (MLDP) to checkpoint sufficient signaling and forwarding information for repopulating the necessary database on a dual Route Processor (RP) platform on which Stateful Switchover/Nonstop Forwarding (SSO/NSF) and Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) Graceful Restart are configured, after a switchover.
Your software release may not support all the features documented in this module. For the latest caveats and feature information, see Bug Search Tool and the release notes for your platform and software release. To find information about the features documented in this module, and to see a list of the releases in which each feature is supported, see the feature information table.

Stateful Switchover/Nonstop Forwarding (SSO/NSF) and LDP Graceful Restart must be configured on the dual Route Processor (RP) platform.
LDP Graceful Restart must be configured on the NSF router peers.
The Cisco IOS release software installed on the active and standby RPs must support MLDP-based MVPN and HA Support for MLDP.
If Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) Graceful Restart is not enabled on the dual Route Processor (RP) platform, Nonstop Forwarding (NSF) peers will remove existing forwarding and label information from their Multicast Label Distribution Protocol (MLDP) database entries immediately following a switchover.
The HA Support for MLDP feature enables MLDP to checkpoint label forwarding or path set information. To support NSF, MLDP uses existing PIM HA architecture to checkpoint the information to the standby RP.
MDT data group creation is a dynamic event triggered by traffic exceeding a specified threshold. When the threshold is exceeded (requiring an MDT data group to be created) or when traffic falls below the threshold (requiring the MDT data group to be deleted), the router detecting the event creates, deletes, or updates an MDT data "send" entry, creates the corresponding (S,G) state, if necessary, and sends a message to PE peers to create, delete, or update a corresponding MDT data "receive" entry and the corresponding (S,G) state.
The active RP will checkpoint the current state of the MLDP peer, paths to peers, root, paths to root, and the database and replication/branch entry onto the standby RP and use this state to recreate the MLDP state after a switchover.

HA Support for MLDP |
15.1(3)S 15.1(1)SY Cisco IOS XE Release 3.8S |
The HA Support for MLDP feature enables Cisco Multicast Label Distribution Protocol (MLDP) to checkpoint sufficient signaling and forwarding information for repopulating the necessary database on a dual Route Processor (RP) platform on which Stateful Switchover/Nonstop Forwarding (SSO/NSF) and Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) Graceful Restart are configured, after a switchover. The following commands were introduced or modified: show ip pim mdt recv, show ip pim mdt send, show mpls mldp ha database , show mpls mldp ha neighbor, show mpls mldp ha root. |
