Generalized MPLS Support for Metro Ethernet Forum and G.8011 User Network Interface
RFC 6005, “Generalized MPLS Support for Metro Ethernet Forum and G.8011 User Network Interface”, is a Proposed Standard document published in October 2010 by L. Berger, D. Fedyk. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document describes a method for controlling two specific types of Ethernet switching via a GMPLS-based User Network Interface (UNI). This document supports the types of switching required by the Ethernet services that have been defined in the context of the Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) and International Telecommunication Union (ITU) G.8011. This document is the UNI companion to "Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) Support for Metro Ethernet Forum and G.8011 Ethernet Service Switching". This document does not define or limit the underlying intra-domain or Internal NNI (I-NNI) technology used to support the UNI. [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.
