The IESG has approved the following document: - 'MPLS-TP Control Plane Framework' (draft-ietf-ccamp-mpls-tp-cp-framework-06.txt) as an Informational RFC This document is the product of the Common Control and Measurement Plane Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Adrian Farrel and Stewart Bryant. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ccamp-mpls-tp-cp-framework/ Technical Summary The MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) supports static provisioning of transport paths via a Network Management System (NMS), and dynamic provisioning of transport paths via a control plane. This document provides the framework for MPLS-TP dynamic provisioning, and covers control plane addressing, routing, path computation, signaling, traffic engineering, and path recovery. MPLS-TP uses GMPLS as the control plane for MPLS-TP LSPs. MPLS-TP also uses the Pseudowire (PW) control plane for Pseudowires (PWs). Management plane functions are out of scope of this document. 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 Pseudowire Emulation Edge-to-Edge (PWE3) architectures to support the capabilities and functionalities of a packet transport network as defined by the ITU-T. Working Group Summary Nothing worth noting. Document Quality This document is an informational framework. It was reviewed by the CCAMP, MPLS, and PWE3 working groups in both of its working group last calls. It was also liaised to the ITU-T in two revisions, and the received review comments were addressed. Personnel Deborah Brungard (db3546@att.com) is the Document Shepherd. Adrian Farrel (adrian.farrel@huawei.com) is the Responsible AD. _______________________________________________ IETF-Announce mailing list IETF-Announce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf-announce
