Title : Extensions to LMP for Flooding-based Fault
Notification
Author(s) : T. Soumiya, R. Rabbat
Filename : draft-soumiya-lmp-fault-notification-ext-01.txt
Pages : 13

This draft describes extensions to the Link Management Protocol (LMP)
for use in flooding-based fault notification in optical networks. We
focus on networks that use a common control plane (e.g, Generalized
Multi-Protocol Label Switching or GMPLS). These extensions implement
the Fault Notification Protocol, a flooding-based approach to
notifying faults to nodes in the network. We motivate the use of LMP
extensions for flooding, define message formats and explain the
communication messages that occur using LMP.

In the body type:

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
Internet-Draft.
