Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching Extensions for Synchronous Optical Network and Synchronous Digital Hierarchy Control
RFC 4606, “Generalized Multi-Protocol Label Switching Extensions for Synchronous Optical Network and Synchronous Digital Hierarchy Control”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2006 by E. Mannie, D. Papadimitriou. It obsoletes RFC 3946. It has since been updated by RFC 6344. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document provides minor clarification to RFC 3946.
This document is a companion to the Generalized Multi-protocol Label Switching (GMPLS) signaling. It defines the Synchronous Optical Network (SONET)/Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) technology-specific information needed when GMPLS signaling is used. [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.
