Title : Protection Scheme for Optical Channel Concatenation
Author(s) : Y. Lee et al.

This paper provides a framework for a protection scheme in the context
of optical channel concatenation (OCC). The need and requirements for
optical channel concatenation is addressed in a separate IETF draft,
draft-damle-optical-channel-concatenation-00.txt,which has been
submitted concurrently. This paper bascially provides mechanisms for
faster failure detection and propagation of failure for concatenated
optical channels. Standard-based MPLS protection schemes can be
employed for the actual rerouting of traffic utilizing the detection
and propagation mechanisms demonstrated in this paper.

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.
