The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Multiprotocol Label Switching Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) MIB-based Management Overview' (draft-ietf-mpls-tp-mib-management-overview-08.txt) as an Informational RFC This document is the product of the Multiprotocol Label Switching Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Stewart Bryant and Adrian Farrel. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mpls-tp-mib-management-overview/ Technical Summary A range of Management Information Base (MIB) modules has been developed to help model and manage the various aspects of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) networks. These MIB modules are defined in separate documents that focus on the specific areas of responsibility of the modules that they describe. The MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) is a profile of MPLS functionality specific to the construction of packet-switched transport networks. This document describes the MIB-based architecture for MPLS-TP, and indicates the interrelationships between different existing MIB modules that can be leveraged for MPLS-TP network management and identifies areas where additional MIB modules are required. Working Group Summary This document is a MPLS working group document, and part of the joint IETF - ITU.T MPLS-TP project. It has been reviewed in both organizations and there is a solid support for the document. Document Quality The document is well reviewed in the MPLS working group,the ITU-T and the MPLS-TP project. Personnel Loa Andersson (loa@pi.nu) is the document shepherd. Stewart Bryant (stbryant@cisco.com) is the Responsible Area Director? RFC Editor Note Section 6 OLD This section highlights new MIB modules that have been identified as being required for MPLS-TP. This section also provides an overview of the following: - the MPLS Object Identifier (OID) tree structure and the position of different MPLS related MIB modules on this tree; - the purpose of each of the MIB modules within the MIB documents, what it can be used for, and how it relates to the other MIB modules. NEW This section highlights new MIB modules that have been identified as being required for MPLS-TP. This section also provides an overview the purpose of each of the MIB modules within the MIB documents, what it can be used for, and how it relates to the other MIB modules.
