Hi Anil,

For ordered control LSP setup, the initiation can be from either the
ingress or the egress LER.  However, for ordered
downstream-on-demand LSP setup, the initiation has to be initiated by the
ingress LER, because the "on-demand" is
the demand from the upstream.

Hi,
Who initates the LSP setup in case of Ordered Downstream-on-Demand mode of
LDP operation.
RFC3031 indicates that for Ordered control LSP setup may be initiated from
either the ingress or the Egress LER. But, if the distribution mode is
Ordered Downstream-on-Demand can the LSP setup be initated from Egress?
Thanks,
-Anil
