Ballot Text

Technical Summary
 
   Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS) defines both
   routing and signaling protocols for the creation of Label Switched
   Paths (LSPs) in various switching technologies. These protocols can
   be used to support a number of deployment scenarios. This memo
   addresses the application of GMPLS to the overlay model.

RFC Editor Note:

Section 8. Security Considerations

OLD:
   This draft imposes no new security risks over [RFC3473]. In fact it
   represents a lower trust model between the core and edge-nodes as the
   core is permitted to hide its topology from the edge-nodes. The core
   is also permitted to restrict the actions of edge-nodes by filtering
   out specific RSVP objects.

NEW:
   The trust model between the core and edge-nodes is different
   than the one described in [RFC3473], as the core is permitted to
   hide its topology from the edge-nodes, and the core is permitted
   to restrict the actions of edge-nodes by filtering out specific
   RSVP objects.
