This document describes an extension to {[}RFC4447{]}procedures which may be used to pass additional information to S-PE/T-PEs when SS-PWs or MS-PWs are set-up. The intention of the proposed technique is to aid in policy administration, specifically during MS-PW set-up across various S-PEs. The proposed method is very generic so that it can support the management of various parameters or rules while setting up pseudowires with minimal overhead.}, }
