Major network vendors (except Cisco) default to the following modes of Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) operation (as per RFC 5036 LDP Specification):

Label Distribution (Advertisement): Downstream Unsolicited (section 2.6.3) Label Control: Ordered (section 2.6.1) Label Retention: Liberal (section 2.6.2)
