Sharma, F. Hellstrand (Editors) 8 Status: Informational 9 Date: February 2003 10 Mailbox: v.sharma@ieee.org, fiffi@nortelnetworks.com 11 Pages: 40 12 Characters: 89331 13 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None 15 I-D Tag: draft-ietf-mpls-recovery-frmwrk-08.txt 17 URL: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3469.txt 19 Multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) integrates the label swapping 20 forwarding paradigm with network layer routing. To deliver reliable 21 service, MPLS requires a set of procedures to provide protection of 22 the traffic carried on different paths. This requires that the label 23 switching routers (LSRs) support fault detection, fault notification, 24 and fault recovery mechanisms, and that MPLS signaling support the 25 configuration of recovery. With these objectives in mind, this 26 document specifies a framework for MPLS based recovery. Restart 27 issues are not included in this framework. 29 This document is a product of the Multiprotocol Label Switching 30 Working Group of the IETF. 32 This memo provides information for the Internet community.
