The General Switch Management Protocol (GSMP) is a general purpose
protocol to control a label switch. GSMP allows a controller to
establish and release connections across the switch; add and
delete leaves on a multicast connection; manage switch ports;
request configuration information; request and delete reservation
of switch resources; and request statistics. It also allows the
switch to inform the controller of asynchronous events such as a
link going down.

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.
