Routing Extensions in Support of Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching
RFC 4202, “Routing Extensions in Support of Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching”, is a Proposed Standard document published in October 2005 by K. Kompella, Y. Rekhter. It has since been updated by RFC 6001, RFC 6002, RFC 7074. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document specifies routing extensions in support of carrying link state information for Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching (GMPLS). This document enhances the routing extensions required to support MPLS Traffic Engineering (TE). [STANDARDS-TRACK]
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
