Deterministic Networking Data Plane: MPLS over UDP/IP
Overview
RFC 9025, “Deterministic Networking Data Plane: MPLS over UDP/IP”, is a Proposed Standard document published in April 2021 by B. Varga, J. Farkas, L. Berger, A. Malis, S. Bryant. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document specifies the MPLS Deterministic Networking (DetNet) data plane operation and encapsulation over an IP network. The approach is based on the operation of MPLS-over-UDP technology.
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.
