A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Use Cases and Requirements for MPLS-TP multi-failure protection Authors : Zhenlong Cui Rolf Winter Filename : draft-cui-mpls-tp-mfp-use-case-and-requirements-01.txt Pages : 6 Date : 2014-02-14 Abstract: MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) linear protection is defined in [RFC6378]. That however is limited to 1+1 and 1:1 protection and is not able to care that the multiple failures are occurred on both working and protection paths. This document describes why we need to consider the case for multiple failures, and lists some requirements for multi-failure protection (MFP) functionality.
