The IESG has approved the following documents: - 'Encapsulation Methods for Transport of Layer 2 Frames Over MPLS Networks ' <draft-martini-l2circuit-encap-mpls-12.txt> as a Historic - 'Transport of Layer 2 Frames Over MPLS ' <draft-martini-l2circuit-trans-mpls-19.txt> as a Historic These documents have been reviewed in the IETF but are not the products of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Mark Townsley. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-martini-l2circuit-encap-mpls-12.txt Technical Summary draft-martini-l2circuit-encap-mpls-12.txt This document describes methods for encapsulating the Protocol Data Units (PDUs) of layer 2 protocols such as Frame Relay, ATM, or Ethernet for transport across an MPLS network. draft-martini-l2circuit-trans-mpls-19.txt This document describes methods for transporting the Protocol Data Units (PDUs) of layer 2 protocols such as Frame Relay, ATM AAL5, Ethernet, and providing a SONET circuit emulation service across an MPLS network. Working Group Summary These documents contain work that was the basis of much of the PWE3 WG efforts. Many implementations exist and have been deployed, though going forward the output of the PWE3 WG supersedes these mechansims as IETF Consensus. These are now being published for the record as Historic to underscore that they document work that has been obsoleted by PWE3 Standards Track work. Protocol Quality These documents were reviewed for the IESG by Mark Townsley. There are numerous deployed and interoperable implementations based on these documents. Note to RFC Editor For draft-martini-l2circuit-trans-mpls-19.txt: In the Abstract: APPEND the following text at the bottom: This document describes the so called "draft-martini" protocol which has been since superseded by the Pseudo Wire Edge to Edge Working Group specifications described in rfc4447 and related documents. In the beginning of section 2: OLD: This document describes the so called "draft-martini" protocol with NEW: This document describes the so called "draft-martini" protocol which ^^^^^ In Section 9, REPLACE the entire section with the following text: This document does not affect the underlying security issues of MPLS, described in [RFC3032]. More detailed security considerations are also described in [RFC4447] section 8.
