The IESG has approved publication of the following Internet-Drafts as Proposed Standards: o Use of Label Switching on Frame Relay Networks Specification <draft-ietf-mpls-fr-06.txt> o MPLS using ATM VC Switching <draft-ietf-mpls-atm-04.txt> These documents are the product of the Multiprotocol Label Switching Working Group. The IESG contact persons are David Oran and Rob Coltun. Technical Summary These documents extend and clarify the relevant portions of MPLS architecture and the Label Distribution Protocol by specifying in more detail the procedures which are to be used when distributing labels to or from ATM and Frame Relay LSRs. They also specify the MPLS encapsulations to be used when sending labeled packets to or from ATM and Frame Relay LSRs. Working Group Summary There was no significant dissent from the working group on these drafts. Protocol Quality These specs were reviewed for the IESG by Rob Coltun. There are implementations of both mechanisms. Note to RFC Editor: Please remove Appendix A on draft-ietf-mpls-fr-05.txt prior to publication. -
