Abstract:
   This document defines a method for transporting timing messages, such
   as Precision Time Protocol (PTP) or Network Time Protocol (NTP), over
   a Multiprotocol Label Switched (MPLS) network.  The method
   facilitates efficient recognition of timing packets to enable their
   port level processing in both Label Edge Routers (LERs) and Label
   Switched Routers (LSRs).

   The basic mechanism is to transport timing messages inside "Timing
   LSPs", which are dedicated MPLS Label Switched Paths (LSPs) that
   carry only timing, and possibly related Operations, Administration
   and Maintenance (OAM) or management packets, but do not carry
   customer traffic.

   Two encapsulations methods are defined.  The first transports UDP/IP
   encapsulated timing messages directly over the dedicated LSP.  The
   second transports Ethernet encapsuled timing messages inside an
   Ethernet pseudowire.
