Most of the initial efforts on Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) have been
related to environments hosting devices with a single switching
capability. The complexity raised by the control of such data
planes is similar to that seen in classical IP/MPLS networks.
By extending MPLS to support multiple switching technologies, GMPLS
provides a comprehensive framework for the control of a multi-
layered network of either a single switching technology or multiple
switching technologies. In GMPLS, a switching technology domain
defines a region, and a network of multiple switching types is
referenced in this document as a multi-region network (MRN). When
referring in general to a layered network, which may consist of
either a single or multiple regions, this document uses the term,
Multi-layer Network (MLN). This draft defines a framework for GMPLS
based multi-region/multi-layer networks and lists a set of
functional requirements.

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.
