Hi Stewart, Sasha,

Every PE allocates PW labels from per-platform label space. This draft doesn't change this. In addition, a protector maintains a separate label table for each primary/protected PE that it protects. This label table contains the PW labels allocated by the primary/protected PE from its own "per-platform" label space. Hope this clarifies it.


Thanks,

/Yimin

Stewart,
I fully agree with you that using PW labels from a  label space that is not a per-platform one requires an explicit update to RFC 4447.
My comment on this point has been triggered by your saying that you *think* that RFC 4447 explicitly requires per-platform label space.
Just wanted to clarify that this is indeed the case.
