i cant get the ldp tunneling working when P router are not backbone router. Although it does not make sense but my scenerio is bit complicted too .
PE1( ldp PE) --(area2)---R1---(area0)-R2---(area0) -R3---(area1) -R4---(area1) PE2( ldp PE)
r1 to r4 rsvp based lsp working with ldp tunning configured
R1-R2-R3 configured ospf backbone area 0
R3-R4 area1
R4-PE2 area1 single uplink from Pe2 to R4
PE1 loopback 172.27.255.9
PE2 loopback 172.27.255.10
i can see routes in ospf database @ R4
lab@R4# run show route 172.27.255.9
inet.0: 40 destinations, 45 routes (40 active, 0 holddown, 3 hidden)
Restart Complete
+ = Active Route, - = Last Active, * = Both
172.27.255.9/32 *[OSPF/10] 00:03:11, metric 13
> to 172.27.0.70 via ge-0/0/2.0
lab@R4# run show route 172.27.255.10
inet.0: 40 destinations, 45 routes (40 active, 0 holddown, 3 hidden)
Restart Complete
+ = Active Route, - = Last Active, * = Both
172.27.255.10/32 *[OSPF/10] 00:38:47, metric 1
> to 172.27.0.110 via ge-0/0/7.0
inet.3: 2 destinations, 2 routes (2 active, 0 holddown, 0 hidden)

management.inet.0: 4 destinations, 4 routes (4 active, 0 holddown, 0 hidden)
+ = Active Route, - = Last Active, * = Both
0.0.0.0/0 *[Static/5] 3w6d 19:42:36

if i configure R4 to area 0 ldp tunneling works however if i keep the set up same way as descibed above . i cant see the 172.27.255.9 route in inet.3 table .
My Question here is " ospf traffic engineering " command generates type 10 LSA . that is limited to area scope . Can we tweak this to generate type 11 LSA which has AS scope ?
lab@R4# run show ospf database | match 172.27.255.9

2) how can we tunnel this LSA if at all we can ? Virtual link between PE2 and R3 ?
