Martini, E. Rosen, G. Heron, A. Malis Status: Standards Track Date: September 2006 Mailbox: lmartini@cisco.com, erosen@cisco.com, giles.heron@tellabs.com, Andy.Malis@tellabs.com Pages: 16 Characters: 33141 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-pwe3-hdlc-ppp-encap-mpls-09.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4618.txt A pseudowire (PW) can be used to carry Point to Point Protocol (PPP) or High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) Protocol Data Units over a Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) network without terminating the PPP/HDLC protocol. This enables service providers to offer "emulated" HDLC, or PPP link services over existing MPLS networks. This document specifies the encapsulation of PPP/HDLC Packet Data Units (PDUs) within a pseudowire. [STANDARDS TRACK] This document is a product of the Pseudo Wire Emulation Edge to Edge Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard Protocol. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the Internet community,and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.Please refer to the current edition of the Internet Official Protocol Standards (STD 1) for the standardization state and status of this protocol.
