Forwarding adjacencies (FA) as described in [2] are a useful tool
for improving the scalability of Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) Traffic
Engineering (TE). Through the aggregation of TE LSPs this concept
enables the creation of a TE-LSP Hierarchy. Forwarding adjacency
LSPs (FA-LSP or simply FA) may be advertised as TE link into the
same instance of ISIS/OSPF as the one that was used to create the
LSP, allowing other LSRs to use FAs as TE-links for their path
computation. As such, forwarding adjacency LSP have characteristics
of both links and LSPs.

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
