LDP is the near-to-near distribution protocol defined by the MPLS working group of the IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force). It is completely independent of pre-existing protocols. On the other hand, it is the result of a hard-won consensus within the working group and, as is often the case, incorporates numerous operating options that are concessions to this consensus. To avoid overloading the text, we'll look at just a few of them here.
