Re: [PWE3] I-D Action: draft-shawam-pwe3-ms-pw-protection-00.txt

Stewart,

This draft is explicitly meant for statically provisioned MS-PWs running
over MPLS-TP LSPs, in order to protect for S-PE failure. Each of the
component SS-PWs are automatically protected by the underlying LSP
protection, so for SS-PWs, there will only be one level of repair, at the
LSP level. We tried to make this clear in the draft. We can try to make
that more clear in the next revision.

Generally, MS-PWs are needed over MPLS-TP for the same reasons that they're
needed over MPLS.

Cheers,
Andy
