Abstract
This document defines simple additions to the Link ManagementProtocol (LMP) to provide a control plane tool that can assist inthe location of stranded resources by allowing adjacent Label-SwitchingRouters (LSRs) to confirm data channel statuses and provide triggers fornotifying the management plane if any discrepancies are found. As LMP isalready used to verify data plane connectivity, it is considered to be anappropriate candidate to support this feature. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
