Title : Requirements of Control Channels Protection Protocol
in GMPLS
Author(s) : Y. Kim et al.
Filename : draft-kim-ccamp-cc-protection-00.txt
Pages : 10

This document proposes a protocol used to protect control channels
between adjacent nodes in GMPLS. Control channels are used to carry
several control packets that include signaling related, routing
related, or link management related information. The protocol may
be used not in in-fiber(or in-band) network configurations but in
out-of-fiber(or out-of-band) network configurations.
Because this proposal is a first document for specifying the protocol
used to protect control channels, it has no full contents for the
specification to be proposed. Instead, this document focuses on basic
concepts, necessity and requirements to be analyzed for protecting
control channels. If we agree with this proposal including necessity
and requirements for protecting control channels, we may proceed
further works for the protection of control channels.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
