A Generic Associated Channel (G-ACH) has been defined as an extension
of the pseudowire Associated Channel Header (ACH) to enable the
realization of a control/communication channel associated with
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label Switched Paths (LSPs),
MPLS pseudowires (PWs), MPLS LSP segments, and MPLS sections between
adjacent MPLS-capable devices.
The MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) is a profile of the MPLS
architecture that identifies elements of the MPLS toolkit that may be
combined to build a carrier grade packet transport network based on
MPLS packet switching technology.
This document describes how the G-ACH may be used to provide the
infrastructure that forms part of the Management Communication
Network (MCN) and a Signaling Communication Network (SCN).
Collectively, the MCN and SCN may be referred to as the Data
Communication Network (DCN). The document explains how MCN and SCN
packets are encapsulated, carried on the G-ACH, and demultiplexed for
