This document specifies a generic Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS)
solution, which uses VLANs to indicate root or leaf traffic to
support Ethernet-Tree (E-Tree) services. A VPLS Provider Edge (PE)
model is illustrated as an example for the solution. In the
solution, E-Tree VPLS PEs are interconnected by Pseudowires (PWs),
which carry the VLAN indicating the E-Tree attribute. The MAC
address-based Ethernet forwarding engine and the PW work in the same
way as specified in RFC 4762 and RFC 4448, respectively. A signaling
mechanism is described to support E-Tree capability and VLAN mapping
negotiation.
This document is a product of the Pseudowire And LDP-enabled Services Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this
memo is unlimited.
