Technical Summary

Maintenance (OAM) mechanism in MPLS networks. This document
describes a mechanism to verify connectivity of Point-to-Multipoint
(P2MP) Pseudowires (PW) using LSP Ping.

Working Group Summary

 There was nothing special in the WG process worth noting.

This is a short draft that received several good reviews and comments
along its path (see the acknowledgements section for the comment

implemented (to my knowledge), but there is at least one
implementation planned.
