Dear all:

    In section 4.2 in RFC5586, it is defined that GAL MUST NOT be used with PWs in MPLS-TP. The PWE3 control word [RFC4385] MUST be present when the ACH is used to realize the associated control channel.
    In real application, a lot of MPLS and MPLS-TP equipments do not support control word. It is proposed to use the GAL to identify associated control channel in PW layer.

Best regards,

                Han Li
