Title: A Transport Network View of LMP
State: Active

Date: 2004-09-17
The Link Management Protocol (LMP) has been developed as part of the
Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) protocol suite to manage Traffic Engineering (TE)
links. The GMPLS control plane (routing and signaling) uses TE links for
establishing Label Switched Paths (LSPs). This memo describes the
relationship of the LMP procedures to 'discovery' as defined in the
International Telecommunication Union (ITU), and on-going ITU-T work. This
document provides an overview of LMP in the context of the ITU-T
Automatically Switched Optical Networks (ASON) and transport network
terminology and relates it to the ITU-T discovery work to promote a common
understanding for progressing the work of IETF and ITU-T.
