LDP Extensions for Pseudowire Binding to Label Switched Path Tunnels
RFC 7965, “LDP Extensions for Pseudowire Binding to Label Switched Path Tunnels”, is a Proposed Standard document published in August 2016 by M. Chen, W. Cao, A. Takacs, P. Pan. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
Many transport services require that user traffic, in the form of Pseudowires (PWs), be delivered via either a single co-routed bidirectional tunnel or two unidirectional tunnels that share the same routes. This document defines an optional extension to the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) that enables the binding between PWs and the underlying Traffic Engineering (TE) tunnels. The extension applies to both single-segment and multi-segment PWs.
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.
