Abstract

This document specifies an initial set of identifiers to be used inthe Transport Profile of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS-TP).The MPLS-TP requirements (RFC 5654) require that the elements andobjects in an MPLS-TP environment are able to be configured andmanaged without a control plane. In such an environment, manyconventions for defining identifiers are possible. This documentdefines identifiers for MPLS-TP management and Operations,Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) functions compatible with IP/MPLS conventions.

This document is a product of a joint Internet Engineering Task Force(IETF) / International Telecommunication Union TelecommunicationStandardization Sector (ITU-T) effort to include an MPLS TransportProfile within the IETF MPLS and Pseudowire Emulation Edge-to-Edge(PWE3) architectures to support the capabilities and functionalitiesof a packet transport network as defined by the ITU-T.
