This document specifies an architectural framework for the
application of Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) in transport
networks, by enabling the construction of packet switched equivalents
to traditional circuit switched carrier networks.  It describes a
common set of protocol functions - the MPLS Transport Profile
(MPLS-TP) - that supports the operational models and capabilities
typical of such networks for point-to-point paths, including signaled
or explicitly provisioned bi-directional connection-oriented paths,
protection and restoration mechanisms, comprehensive Operations,
Administration and Maintenance (OAM) functions, and network operation
in the absence of a dynamic control plane or IP forwarding support.
Some of these functions exist in existing MPLS specifications, while
others require extensions to existing specifications to meet the
requirements of the MPLS-TP.
