Title : A Framework for the LSP Setup Across IGP Areas for
MPLS Traffic Engineering

In this draft, we propose architecture for the inter-area LSP setup
based on criteria (combination of constraints). We derive the
architectural requirements for the routing protocols, signaling
protocols and the MIBs to support such an idea. We also demonstrate
how such a mechanism will reduce the crankback during LSP setup.
A possible outline of the modifications to the CSPF algorithm and
examples are presented. In the companion document [INTER_AREA_EXT]
we elaborate on the extensions required for such architecture.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
