RFC 7771 Title: Switching Provider Edge (S-PE) Protection for MPLS and MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) Static Multi-Segment Pseudowires Author: A. Malis, Ed., L. Andersson, H. van Helvoort, J. Shin, L. Wang, A. D'Alessandro Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: January 2016 Mailbox: agmalis@gmail.com, loa@mail01.huawei.com, huubatwork@gmail.com, jongyoon.shin@sk.com, wangleiyj@chinamobile.com, alessandro.dalessandro@telecomitalia.it Pages: 9 Characters: 19235 Updates: RFC 6870 I-D Tag: draft-ietf-pals-ms-pw-protection-04.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc7771 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17487/RFC7771 In MPLS and MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) environments, statically provisioned Single-Segment Pseudowires (SS-PWs) are protected against tunnel failure via MPLS-level and MPLS-TP-level tunnel protection. With statically provisioned Multi-Segment Pseudowires (MS-PWs), each segment of the MS-PW is likewise protected from tunnel failures via MPLS-level and MPLS-TP-level tunnel protection. However, static MS-PWs are not protected end-to-end against failure of one of the Switching Provider Edge Routers (S-PEs) along the path of the MS-PW. This document describes how to achieve this protection via redundant MS-PWs by updating the existing procedures in RFC 6870. It also contains an optional approach based on MPLS-TP Linear Protection. 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.
