In a transport network scenario, where Data Plane connections  
controlled either by GMPLS (Soft Permanent Connections - SPC) or by  
Management System (Permanent Connections - PC) may independently  
coexist, the ability of transforming an existing PC into a SPC and  
vice versa - without actually affecting Data Plane traffic being  
carried over it - is a valuable option. This applies especially when  
a GMPLS based Control Plane is first introduced into an existing  
network and there may be the need, from a Carrier point of view, to  
pass under GMPLS control existing connections already set up over  
Data Plane. In other terms, such operation could be seen as a way of  
transferring the ownership and control of an existing and in-use Data 
Plane connection between the Management Plane and the Control Plane,  
leaving its Data Plane state untouched.  
This memo provides a minor extension to RSVP-TE signaling protocol,  
within GMPLS architecture, to enable such connection ownership  
transfer and describes the proposed procedures.
