Thanks for the reply. What if the router does not have the default route? In that case, does it send a Notification with status "No Route" like with any other route for which it does not have an entry in its routing table.

Thanks again,

Bageshri

Hi,

What is a router supposed to do on receiving a Label request with the FEC tlv for a default route(0.0.0.0/0)? Is it supposed to send a Notification back with status "No route" or send a Label mapping for the same? If the latter is true, what is the label?

Thanks,

Bageshri
