RFC 5254 describes the service provider requirements for extending
the reach of pseudowires (PWs) across multiple Packet Switched
Network domains.  A multi-segment PW is defined as a set of two or
more contiguous PW segments that behave and function as a single
point-to-point PW.  This document describes extensions to the PW
control protocol to dynamically place the segments of the
multi-segment pseudowire among a set of Provider Edge (PE) routers.
This document also updates RFC 6073 by updating the value of the
Length field of the PW Switching Point PE Sub-TLV Type 0x06 to 14.

This document is a product of the Pseudowire Emulation Edge to Edge Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.
