Layer Two Tunneling Protocol version 3 -
Setup of Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) Pseudowires
Abstract
This document defines extensions to the Layer Two Tunneling Protocol
version 3 (L2TPv3) for support of structure-agnostic and structure-
aware (Circuit Emulation Service over Packet Switched Network
(CESoPSN) style) Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) pseudowires.
Support of structure-aware (Time-Division Multiplexing over IP
(TDMoIP) style) pseudowires over L2TPv3 is left for further study.

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

1. Introduction
This document defines extensions to the Layer Two Tunneling Protocol
Version 3 (L2TPv3) for support of structure-agnostic [RFC4553] and
structure-aware (CESoPSN style, see [RFC5086]) Time-Division
Multiplexing (TDM) pseudowires. Structure-agnostic encapsulation of
TDM bit-streams over L2TPv3 is described in [RFC4553], Figure 2b;
Circuit Emulation Service over Packet Switched Networks (CESoPSN),
structure-aware encapsulation is described in [RFC5086], Figures 1c
(TDM data packets) and 4a (CE application signaling packets).
However, the order of the CESoPSN Control Word (CW) and RTP header
(if it is used) MUST match between the TDM data and CE signaling
packets.
Setup of structure-aware TDM pseudowires using the encapsulations
described in [RFC5087] has been left for further study.
Setup and maintenance of TDM pseudowires (PWs) in MPLS networks using
LDP is described in [RFC5287].
