Terminology only - not mechanisms specification !
LSP Recovery implies
Both LSP protection and LSP restoration
LSPs controlled by a GMPLS control plane
End-to-end, segment and span (i.e. link) recovery
Terminology for control plane recovery is out of scope
Independent of underlying/controlled transport technologies
Inspired from G.gps (Generic Protection Switching)
Generalization of protection terminology to restoration
Will help to neutrally define and classify the different mechanisms
To ensure a common vocabulary between all related documents
