This will be done based on the protocols developed by the MPLS and CCAMP working groups in the IETF. Ethernet Label Switching will use the data plane encodings as specified by the IEEE 802 standards. This document intends to gather the information necessary to have a "GMPLS Ethernet Label Switching" BoF in Vancouver.}, }
