Technical Summary

   This document describes a method for controlling two specific types
   of Ethernet switching via Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching
   (GMPLS). This document supports the types of switching corresponding
   to the Ethernet services that have been defined in the context of the
   Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) and International Telecommunication Union
   (ITU) G.8011. Specifically, switching in support of Ethernet private
   line and Ethernet virtual private line services are covered. Support
   for MEF and ITU defined parameters is also covered.

Working Group Summary

   Nothing to report.

Document Quality

   There are no known implementations, but it is expected that several
   vendors plan to implement.

Personnel

   Deborah Brungard (db3546@att.com) is the Document Shepherd.
