	Title           : Use of Multipath with MPLS-TP and MPLS
	Author(s)       : C. Villamizar
	Filename        : draft-villamizar-mpls-tp-multipath-01.txt

Many MPLS implementations have supported multipath techniques and
many MPLS deployments have used multipath techniques, particularly in
very high bandwidth applications, such as provider IP/MPLS core
networks.  MPLS-TP has discouraged the use of multipath techniques.
Some degradation of MPLS-TP OAM performance cannot be avoided when
operating over current high bandwidth multipath implementations.

The tradeoffs involved in using multipath techniques with MPLS and
MPLS-TP are described.  Requirements are discussed which enable full
MPLS-TP compliant LSP including full OAM capability to be carried
over MPLS LSP which are traversing multipath links.  Other means of
supporting MPLS-TP coexisting with MPLS and multipath are discussed.
