A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 5950 Title: Network Management Framework for MPLS-based Transport Networks Author: S. Mansfield, Ed., E. Gray, Ed., K. Lam, Ed. Status: Informational Stream: IETF Date: September 2010 Mailbox: scott.mansfield@ericsson.com, eric.gray@ericsson.com, Kam.Lam@alcatel-lucent.com Pages: 18 Characters: 39502 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-mpls-tp-nm-framework-05.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5950.txt This document provides the network management framework for the Transport Profile for Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS-TP). This framework relies on the management terminology from the ITU-T to describe the management architecture that could be used for an MPLS-TP management network. The management of the MPLS-TP network could be based on multi-tiered distributed management systems. This document provides a description of the network and element management architectures that could be applied and also describes heuristics associated with fault, configuration, and performance aspects of the management system. This document is a product of a joint Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) / International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) effort to include an MPLS Transport Profile within the IETF MPLS and PWE3 architectures to support the capabilities and functionalities of a packet transport network. This document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational purposes. This document is a product of the Multiprotocol Label Switching Working Group of the IETF.
