RFC 4875 Title: Extensions to Resource Reservation Protocol - Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) for Point-to-Multipoint TE Label Switched Paths (LSPs) Author: R. Aggarwal, Ed., D. Papadimitriou, Ed., S. Yasukawa, Ed. Status: Standards Track Date: May 2007 Mailbox: rahul@juniper.net, yasukawa.seisho@lab.ntt.co.jp, Dimitri.Papadimitriou@alcatel-lucent.be Pages: 53 Characters: 125394 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-mpls-rsvp-te-p2mp-07.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4875.txt This document describes extensions to Resource Reservation Protocol - Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) for the set up of Traffic Engineered (TE) point-to-multipoint (P2MP) Label Switched Paths (LSPs) in Multi- Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) networks. The solution relies on RSVP-TE without requiring a multicast routing protocol in the Service Provider core. Protocol elements and procedures for this solution are described. There can be various applications for P2MP TE LSPs such as IP multicast. Specification of how such applications will use a P2MP TE LSP is outside the scope of this document. [STANDARDS TRACK] This document is a product of the Multiprotocol Label Switching 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.
