MPLS Working Group, MPLS Open DT,

The MPLS Network Actions (MNA) framework requires a method of indicating
the presence of a Network Action and any Ancillary Data.

Is the consensus of the working group that we do this by:

   (1) allocating a new SPL for Network Action Indicators?

   (2) re-purposing the ELI SPL?

   (3) using some other method of indicating this such as making it an
       additional property of an ordinary label?

Please respond to the MPLS WG mail list.

Loa Andersson
for the Open DT wg chairs
