A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Pseudowire Emulation Edge to Edge Working Group of the IETF. Title : Pseudowire Setup and Maintenance using the Label Distribution Protocol Author(s) : Luca Martini Giles Heron Filename : draft-ietf-pwe3-rfc4447bis-01.txt Pages : 34 Date : 2013-02-20 Abstract: Layer 2 services (such as Frame Relay, Asynchronus Transfer Mode, and Ethernet) can be "emulated" over an MPLS backbone by encapsulating the Layer 2 Packet Data Units (PDU) and then transmitting them over "pseudowires". It is also possible to use pseudowires to provide low-rate Time Dividion Multiplexed and Synchronous Optical NETworking circuit emulation over a MPLS-enabled network. This document specifies a protocol for establishing and maintaining the pseudowires, using extensions to the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP). Procedures for encapsulating Layer 2 PDUs are specified in a set of companion documents.
