The IESG has received a request from the Pseudowire And LDP-enabled Services WG (pals) to consider the following document: - 'Signaling Root-Initiated Point-to-Multipoint Pseudowire using LDP' <draft-ietf-pals-p2mp-pw-03.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2017-08-24. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document specifies a mechanism to signal Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP) Pseudowires (PW) tree using LDP. Such a mechanism is suitable for any Layer 2 VPN service requiring P2MP connectivity over an IP or MPLS enabled PSN. A P2MP PW established via the proposed mechanism is root initiated. This document updates RFC7385 by re-assigning reserved value 0xFF to be the wildcard transport tunnel type. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pals-p2mp-pw/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pals-p2mp-pw/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
