   This document provides an applicability analysis on the use of 
   Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS) protocols and 
   mechanisms to satisfy the requirements of the Layer 1 Virtual Private 
   Network (L1VPN) Enhanced Mode. 

   L1VPNs provide customer services and connectivity at layer 1 over 
   layer 1 networks. The operation of L1VPNs is divided into the Basic 
   Mode and the Enhanced Mode, where the Enhanced Mode of operation 
   features exchange of routing information between the layer 1 network 
   and the customer domain.

    In addition, this document identifies areas where additional protocol 
   extensions or procedures are needed to satisfy the requirements of 
   the L1VPN Enhanced Mode, and provides guidelines for potential 
   extensions.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
