Establishment and control of Label Switch Paths (LSPs) have become
mainstream tools of commercial and government network providers.  One
of the elements of further evolving such networks is scaling their
performance in terms of LSP bandwidth and traffic loads, LSP
intensity (e.g., rate of LSP creation, deletion, and modification),
LSP set up delay, quality-of-service differentiation, and different
levels of resilience.

The goal of this document is to present target scaling objectives and
the related protocol requirements for Generalized Multi-Protocol
Label Switching (GMPLS).
