Title: Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) RSVP-TE Signaling in support of Layer-2 Label Switched Paths (L2 LSP)
State: Active
Authors: Dimitri Papadimitriou
Group: Individual Submissions (none)

Most efforts on Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) have been focused on environments
covering Circuit oriented LSPs (Sonet/SDH, OTH, etc.). There is minimal
documentation on GMPLS support of Layer-2 Label Switched Paths (L2 LSPs),
e.g. native Ethernet LSPs, Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) LSPs and Frame
Relay (FR) LSPs. This document details GMPLS capabilities for supporting L2
LSPs in several network environments including overlays. As such, it
provides a reference detailing the applicability of GMPLS for Layer- 2
switching environments in support of various deployment scenarios,
including the integrated (e.g. multi LSP-region networks), the
augmented/peer and the overlay model (e.g. Generalized VPN (GVPN) and
user-network interfaces (GMPLS UNI)).
