Hi

It is expected that the PW will have Control Word enabled. 

So data packets will have first 4 bits as 0000 and OAM packets due to GACh will have first 4 bits as 0001 , which provides the distinguishing factor. 

Regards,
Apratim

Hi,

In spec  Linear Protection draft-ietf-mpls-tp-linear-protection-04.txt, what will be the default behavior if designated MEP receives the PSC OAM packet with  Pseudowire lable has non TTL 1 value ?

How does MEP in PE knows that should pass the packet to control plane or forward the packet since PW label is non TTL 1 value.

PE should take decision by seeing Tunnel and PW  label or TTL also need to be looked ?
Regards,
Saravanan.
