RFC 7087 Title: A Thesaurus for the Interpretation of Terminology Used in MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) Internet-Drafts and RFCs in the Context of the ITU-T's Transport Network Recommendations Author: H. van Helvoort, Ed., L. Andersson, Ed., N. Sprecher, Ed. Status: Informational Stream: IETF Date: December 2013 Mailbox: Huub.van.Helvoort@huawei.com, loa@mail01.huawei.com, nurit.sprecher@nsn.com Pages: 21 Characters: 43925 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-mpls-tp-rosetta-stone-13.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7087.txt The MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) is based on a profile of the MPLS and Pseudowire (PW) procedures as specified in the MPLS Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE), PW, and Multi-Segment Pseudowire (MS-PW) architectures developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). The International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) has specified a Transport Network architecture. This document provides a thesaurus for the interpretation of MPLS-TP terminology within the context of the ITU-T Transport Network Recommendations. It is important to note that MPLS-TP is applicable in a wider set of contexts than just Transport Networks. The definitions presented in this document do not provide exclusive or complete interpretations of MPLS-TP concepts. This document simply allows the MPLS-TP terms to be applied within the Transport Network context. This document is a product of the Multiprotocol Label Switching Working Group of the IETF.
