Hello Nitin,

Section 2.4 describes how to identify a static LSP.

My question concerns the activation/enabling/instantiation of
the tool.
In transport networks when tools are enabled the appropriate
parameters are set (e.g. periodicity, MEL, thresholds, etc.)
and it is expected that no negotiation between the end-points
takes place after this provisioning. If one of the end-points
gets an unexpected result this is reported to the NMS.
This enabling is considered to be static.
I cannot find any description of this expected behaviour in
transport netwroks in the draft.

Regards, Huub.
