Aggregation of Resource ReSerVation Protocol Reservations over MPLS TE/DS-TE Tunnels
RFC 4804, “Aggregation of Resource ReSerVation Protocol Reservations over MPLS TE/DS-TE Tunnels”, is a Proposed Standard document published in February 2007 by F. Le Faucheur. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
RFC 3175 specifies aggregation of Resource ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP) end-to-end reservations over aggregate RSVP reservations. This document specifies aggregation of RSVP end-to-end reservations over MPLS Traffic Engineering (TE) tunnels or MPLS Diffserv-aware MPLS Traffic Engineering (DS-TE) tunnels. This approach is based on RFC 3175 and simply modifies the corresponding procedures for operations over MPLS TE tunnels instead of aggregate RSVP reservations. This approach can be used to achieve admission control of a very large number of flows in a scalable manner since the devices in the core of the network are unaware of the end-to-end RSVP reservations and are only aware of the MPLS TE tunnels.

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.
