A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories.
This draft is a work item of the Layer 1 Virtual Private Networks Working Group of the IETF.
Title : BGP-based Auto-Discovery for L1VPNs
Author(s) : H. Ould-Brahim, et al.
Filename : draft-ietf-l1vpn-bgp-auto-discovery-01.txt
Pages : 9
Date : 2006-10-24
The purpose of this draft is to define a BGP-based auto-
discovery mechanism for layer-1 VPNs. The auto-discovery
mechanism for l1vpns allows the provider network devices to
dynamically discover the set of PEs having ports attached to
CEs member of the same VPN. That information is necessary for
completing the signaling phase. One main objective of l1vpn
auto-discovery mechanism is to support "single-end
provisioning" model, where addition of a new port to a given
l1vpn would involve configuration changes only on the PE that
has this port and on the CE that is connected to the PE via
this port.

In the body type:
"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-l1vpn-bgp-auto-discovery-01.txt".
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.
