RFC 3346, “Applicability Statement for Traffic Engineering with MPLS”, is an Informational document published in August 2002 by J. Boyle, V. Gill, A. Hannan, D. Cooper, D. Awduche, B. Christian, W.S. Lai. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document describes the applicability of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) to traffic engineering in IP networks. Special considerations for deployment of MPLS for traffic engineering in operational contexts are discussed and the limitations of the MPLS approach to traffic engineering are highlighted.
