Resending. ----- Forwarded message from rfc-editor@rfc-editor.org ----- To: ietf-announce@ietf.org, rfc-dist@rfc-editor.org Subject: RFC 5710 on PathErr Message Triggered MPLS and GMPLS LSP Reroutes From: rfc-editor@rfc-editor.org Cc: rfc-editor@rfc-editor.org, mpls@ietf.org Date: Thu, 14 Jan 2010 23:08:51 -0800 (PST) A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 5710 Title: PathErr Message Triggered MPLS and GMPLS LSP Reroutes Author: L. Berger, D. Papadimitriou, JP. Vasseur Status: Standards Track Date: January 2010 Mailbox: lberger@labn.net, Dimitri.Papadimitriou@alcatel-lucent.be, jpv@cisco.com Pages: 12 Characters: 27233 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-mpls-gmpls-lsp-reroute-06.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5710.txt This document describes how Resource ReserVation Protocol (RSVP) PathErr messages may be used to trigger rerouting of Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) point-to-point Traffic Engineering (TE) Label Switched Paths (LSPs) without first removing LSP state or resources. Such LSP rerouting may be desirable in a number of cases, including, for example, soft-preemption and graceful shutdown. This document describes the usage of existing Standards Track mechanisms to support LSP rerouting. In this case, it relies on mechanisms already defined as part of RSVP-TE and simply describes a sequence of actions to be executed. While existing protocol definitions can be used to support reroute applications, this document also defines a new reroute-specific error code to allow for the future definition of reroute-application-specific error values. [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. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
