Technical Summary

   This draft defines protocol extensions required to synchronize flow
   label states among PEs when using the BGP-based signaling procedures.
   These protocol extensions are equally applicable to point-to-point
   Layer2 Virtual Private Networks (L2VPNs). This draft updates RFC 4761
   by defining new flags in the Control Flags field of the Layer2 Info
   Extended Community.

Working Group Summary

  Normal process, nothing special to highlight.

Document Quality

  At least one implementation exists. The Document is fairly simple.
