A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : MPLS-TP Use Cases Studies and Design Considerations Author(s) : L. Fang, C. Telecom Filename : draft-fang-mpls-tp-use-cases-and-design-01.txt Pages : 16 Date : 2010-07-12 This document provides use case studies and network design considerations for Multiprotocol Label Switching Transport Profile (MPLS-TP). In the recent years, MPLS-TP has emerged as the technology of choice to meet the needs of transport evolution. Many service providers (SPs) intend to replace SONET/SDH, TDM, ATM traditional transport technologies with MPLS-TP, to achieve higher efficiency, lower operational cost, while maintaining transport characteristics. The use cases for MPLS-TP include Mobile backhaul, Metro Ethernet access and aggregation, and packet optical transport. The design considerations include operational experience, standards compliance, technology maturity, end-to-end forwarding and OAM consistency, compatibility with IP/MPLS networks, and multi-vendor interoperability. The goal is to provide reliable, manageable, and scalable transport solutions. The unified MPLS strategy, using MPLS from core to aggregation and access (e.g. IP/MPLS in the core, IP/MPLS or MPLS-TP in aggregation and access) appear to be very attractive to many SPs. It streamlines the operation, many help to reduce the overall complexity and improve end-to-end convergence. It leverages the MPLS experience, and enhances the ability to support revenue generating services.
