The following errata report has been submitted for RFC5960,
"MPLS Transport Profile Data Plane Architecture".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Italo Busi <italo.busi@alcatel-lucent.com>

Section: 6

Original Text
-------------
2. Any MPLS label in the packet's label stack processed at the
receiving LSR, such as an LSP or PW label, has a label value
that the receiving LSR has previously distributed to the peer
beyond that neighbor (i.e., when it is known that the path
from the system to which the label was distributed to the
receiving system is via that neighbor).

Corrected Text
--------------
2. Any MPLS label processed at the receiving LSR, such as an LSP or
PW label, has a label value that the receiving LSR has previously
distributed to the peer (in a common sub-layer) beyond that immediate
neighbour, the specific scenario being when labels for more than one
sub-layer in the hierarchy has been allocated from a common label space
AND the sub-layer of receipt does not correspond to the sub-layer of
label distribution for the specific label value.

Notes
-----
This change is intended to clarify the difference between the peer and a neighbour, it also provides a description of the application scenario.
