Status of this Memo
This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the
Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet
Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state
and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

Abstract
This document specifies mechanisms and TLVs (Type/Length/Value) for
support of CR-LSPs (constraint-based routed Label Switched Path)
using LDP (Label Distribution Protocol).
This specification proposes an end-to-end setup mechanism of a CR-LSP
initiated by the ingress LSR (Label Switching Router). We also
specify mechanisms to provide means for reservation of resources
using LDP.
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 RFC 2119 [6].
