The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Support for RSVP-TE in L3VPNs' (draft-kumaki-murai-l3vpn-rsvp-te-09.txt) as Experimental RFC This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Stewart Bryant. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-kumaki-murai-l3vpn-rsvp-te/ Technical Summary IP Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) provide connectivity between sites across an IP/MPLS backbone. These VPNs can be operated using BGP/MPLS and a single provider edge (PE) node may provide access to multiple customer sites belonging to different VPNs. The VPNs may support a number of customer services including RSVP and RSVP-TE traffic. This document describes how to support RSVP-TE between customer sites when a single PE supports multiple VPNs and labels are not used to identify VPNs between PEs. Working Group Summary The Working Group did not adopt the work, even though prior requirements exist within another working group document (RFC5824). However the working group chars felt the work had merit and good support from its co-authors therefore the document might be progressed as experimental and AD sponsored. Document Quality The authors mentioned that extensions defined in the document have been implemented and tested. Although I do think the document would benefit from a thorough review and I would be willing to do this. The document is Experimental therefore there are no IANA requests. No MIB currently exists to manage or report the status of these new protocol mechanisms. Personnel Daniel King is the Document Shepard. Stewart Bryant is the Responsible Area Director.'
