1. Introduction
This memo defines an portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
In particular, it describes managed objects for modeling a
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) [RFC3031] Label Switching Router
(LSR).
Comments should be made directly to the MPLS mailing list at
mpls@uu.net.
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, RFC 2119,
reference [RFC2119].
