Multiprotocol Label Switching (mpls)
Folks,
Has anyone else had problems with the current MPLS MIBs? A
while back I tried to implement RFC 3814 and was underwhelmed.
Maybe we should ask the WG to revisit their MIBs.

Subject: WG Review: Recharter of Multiprotocol Label
Switching (mpls)
A modified charter has been submitted for the Multiprotocol Label
Switching working group in the in the Routing Area of the
IETF. The
IESG has not made any determination as yet. The modified
charter is
provided below for informational purposes only. Please send your
comments to the IESG mailing list (iesg at ietf.org) by
Tuesday, July 8,
2008.
This is an update to the MPLS charter in order to cover the MPLS-TP
work.

Description of Working Group:
The MPLS working group is responsible for standardizing a base
technology for using label switching and for the implementation of
label-switched paths over various packet based link-level
technologies, such as Packet-over-Sonet, Frame Relay, ATM,
and LAN technologies (e.g.
all forms of Ethernet, Token Ring, etc.).
This includes procedures and protocols for the distribution
of labels
between routers and encapsulation.
The working group is also responsible for specifying the necessary
management objects (e.g. as part of MIB modules) and OAM techniques
for the functionality specified in the base MPLS technology.
The first generation of the MPLS standards are largely
complete, and
the current WG work items are:
- Define requirements, mechanisms and protocol extensions for
point-to-multipoint (P2MP) MPLS
- Define requirements, mechanisms and protocol extensions
for traffic
engineered point-to-multipoint (P2MP) MPLS, including soft
preemption
- Define requirements and mechanisms for MPLS OAM
- Define an overall OAM framework for MPLS applications
- MPLS-specific aspects of traffic engineering for
multi-areas/multi-AS in cooperation with the CCAMP WG
- Determine (with CCAMP) what procedures are appropriate for
evaluating proposals to extend the MPLS and GMPLS protocols, and
document these
- Document current implementation practices for MPLS load sharing
- Include extensions to the MPLS WG protocols and RFCs
necessary to
create an MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS TP). The work on the MPLS TP
will be coordinated between the working groups (eg, MPLS,
CCAMP, PWE3,
and
L2PVN) that are chartered to do MPLS TP work.
