SCTP-Based Transport Mapping Layer (TML) for the
Forwarding and Control Element Separation (ForCES) Protocol
Abstract
This document defines the SCTP-based TML (Transport Mapping Layer)
for the ForCES (Forwarding and Control Element Separation) protocol.
It explains the rationale for choosing the SCTP (Stream Control
Transmission Protocol) and also describes how this TML addresses all
the requirements required by and the ForCES protocol.
