Node Behavior upon Originating and Receiving Resource Reservation Protocol Path Error Messages
RFC 5711, “Node Behavior upon Originating and Receiving Resource Reservation Protocol Path Error Messages”, is a Proposed Standard document published in January 2010 by JP. Vasseur, G. Swallow, I. Minei. It updates RFC 3209. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The aim of this document is to describe a common practice with regard to the behavior of nodes that send and receive a Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) Traffic Engineering (TE) Path Error messages for a preempted Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) or Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) Traffic Engineering Label Switched Path (TE LSP). (For reference to the notion of TE LSP preemption, see RFC 3209.) This document does not define any new protocol extensions. [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.
