What is BGP-LU?
BGP-LU (BGP Label Unicast) is an extension to BGP that distributes MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) labels along with network reachability information. It's primarily used to establish end-to-end LSPs (Label Switched Paths) across multiple BGP autonomous systems (ASs). This allows for more efficient traffic engineering and VPN services across the internet by reducing reliance on hop-by-hop routing decisions.
