Title : GVPN Services: Generalized VPN Services using BGP and GMPLS Toolkit

This draft describes a suite of port-based Provider-provisioned
VPN services called Generalized VPNs (GVPNs) that uses BGP as a
VPN auto-discovery and GMPLS as a signaling mechanism. GVPN
services are "generalized" as the interfaces on the customerÆs
and provider ports could be any of the interfaces supported by
Generalized MPLS (GMPLS). GVPN services outlined in this
document are: (1) a port-based Generalized Virtual Private Wire
(GVPW) where the basic unit of service is a Label Switched Path
(LSP) between a pair of customerÆs ports within a given VPN
port-topology. (2) a Generalized Virtual Private Cross-connect
(GVPXC) service where the service provider network appears to
the customer network as a GMPLS-enabled Virtual Private node. A
GVPXC service provides flexible traffic engineering on the
client network and eliminates the need for n square routing
peering between CEs. Since GVPNs uses GMPLS as the signaling
mechanism, and since GMPLS applies to both TDM and Optical
interfaces, it results that GVPN services include Optical/TDM
VPNs (though they need not be restricted to).

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
