A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 4990 Title: Use of Addresses in Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS) Networks Author: K. Shiomoto, R. Papneja, R. Rabbat Status: Informational Date: September 2007 Mailbox: shiomoto.kohei@lab.ntt.co.jp, rabbat@alum.mit.edu, rpapneja@isocore.com Pages: 23 Characters: 50908 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-ccamp-gmpls-addressing-08.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4990.txt This document clarifies the use of addresses in Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS) networks. The aim is to facilitate interworking of GMPLS-capable Label Switching Routers (LSRs). The document is based on experience gained in implementation, interoperability testing, and deployment. The document describes how to interpret address and identifier fields within GMPLS protocols, and how to choose which addresses to set in those fields for specific control plane usage models. It also discusses how to handle IPv6 sources and destinations in the MPLS and GMPLS Traffic Engineering (TE) Management Information Base (MIB) modules.
