[mpls] Query regarding MPLS P2MP ID usage

[venkatesan mahalingam <[e-mail]>]

Hi,

As per draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-09.txt<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-mpls-p2mp-te-mib-09.txt>
draft,
P2MP MPLS-TE MIB is extended from MPLS-TE-STD-MIB.

So, mplsTunnelTable table can contain the informations for both normal MPLS
tunnels and MPLS P2MP tunnels.
How the two entries can be differentiated, do we need to check the entry
existence in the P2MP tunnel to
confirm the entry in the mplsTunnelTable is for P2MP tunnel?

 P2MP tunnel information in mplsTunnelTable is as follows:
     {
       mplsTunnelIndex              = 4,
       mplsTunnelInstance           = 0,
       mplsTunnelIngressLSRId       = "192.0.2.1",
       -- The tunnel egress LSR ID is used to
       -- hold the P2MP ID for the P2MP LSP tunnel
 *      mplsTunnelEgressLSRId        = 328,*
*       .........................*
*       .........................*
   }

What if the mplsTunnelEgressLSRId unsigned 32 bit integer matches with the
normal MPLS-TE tunnel's egress-id (Egress node IP address)?
Are we assuming that P2MP Id (mplsTunnelEgressLSRId) will not overlap the
valid IP address range?
