MPLS-TP Identifiers Following ITU-T Conventions
draft-ietf-mpls-tp-itu-t-identifiers-02
Abstract
This document specifies an extension to the identifiers to be used in
the Transport Profile of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS-TP).
Identifiers that follow IP/MPLS conventions have already been
defined. This memo augments that set of identifiers for MPLS-TP
management and OAM functions to include identifier information in a
format typically used by the ITU-T.
Status of this Memo
This Internet-Draft is submitted in full conformance with the
provisions of BCP 78 and BCP 79.

Internet-Draft MPLS-TP ITU-T IDs October 2011
1. Introduction
This document augments the initial set of identifiers to be used in
the Transport Profile of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS-TP)
specified in RFC 6370 [RFC6370].
RFC 6370 [RFC6370] defines a set of MPLS-TP transport and management
entity identifiers to support bidirectional (co-routed and
associated) point-to-point MPLS-TP LSPs, including PWs and Sections
which follow the IP/MPLS conventions.
This document specifies an alternative way to uniquely identify an
operator/service provider based on ITU-T conventions and specifies
how this operator/service provider identifier can be used to make the
existing set of MPLS-TP transport and management entity identifiers,
defined by RFC 6370 [RFC6370], globally unique.
This document solely defines those identifiers. Their use and
possible protocols extensions to carry them is out of scope in this
