Non-Penultimate Hop Popping Behavior and Out-of-Band Mapping for
RSVP-TE Label Switched Paths
Abstract
There are many deployment scenarios that require an egress Label
Switching Router (LSR) to receive binding of the Resource Reservation
Protocol - Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) Label Switched Path (LSP) to
an application and a payload identifier using some "out-of-band"
(OOB) mechanism. This document defines protocol mechanisms to
address this requirement. The procedures described in this document
are equally applicable for point-to-point (P2P) and point-to-
multipoint (P2MP) LSPs.

1. Introduction
When Resource Reservation Protocol - Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) is
used for applications like Multicast Virtual Private Network (MVPN)
[RFC6513] and Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) [RFC4761], an egress
Label Switching Router (LSR) receives the binding of the RSVP-TE
Label Switched Path (LSP) to an application and a payload identifier
using an "out-of-band" (OOB) mechanism (e.g., Border Gateway Protocol
(BGP)). In such cases, the egress LSR cannot make correct forwarding
