Ah okay. That makes sense, then, as I assumed you were still 
running LDP even after turning on RSVP for "LDP and RSVP" as 
opposed to "LDP or RSVP".

Glad to hear it's working out.

Just from our own point of view (if you can find this 
useful), we use both LDP and RSVP in our network.

LDP is used everywhere (especially the Metro-E Access 
switches) and RSVP is only used among the PE Aggregation 
routers. RSVP is used there as this is the point in the 
network where we terminate p2mp LSP's for NG-MVPN (IPTv 
Multicast services). This also includes facility backup 
(node-link protection) for p2mp and p2p LSP's.

The core routers also run LDP and RSVP (RSVP for transit 
LSP's only).

We're looking to support mLDP for p2mp LSP's for data 
Multicast services, as RSVP might be overkill for such 
deployments.

All PE Aggregation routers run LDPoRSVP.

We don't generally plan to run RSVP in the Metro-E Access, 
due to the sheer number of devices, but might if it makes 
commercial sense for a couple of customers, e.g., those that 
require 50ms failover between primary and protect circuits.

Cheers,

Mark.
