Labels that are associated with the next-hop router are inserted into which data plane table?

  • LIB
  • RIB
  • LFIB
  • FIB

Explanation: While a router maintains all labels received from its LDP peers in the LIB (Label Information Base), only the specific labels received from the next-hop router for a destination prefix are installed into the LFIB (Label Forwarding Information Base). The LFIB is the data plane table used for actual label-switching operations.
