The IESG has approved the Internet-Draft 'Signalling Unnumbered Links
in CR-LDP' <draft-ietf-mpls-crldp-unnum-10.txt> as a Proposed Standard.
This document is the product of the Multiprotocol Label Switching
Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Scott Bradner and Bert
Wijnen.
Technical Summary
This document defines procedures and extensions to Constraint-Routing
Label Distribution Protocol (CR-LDP), one of the MPLS TE signaling
protocols, that are needed in order to support unnumbered links.
Supporting MPLS TE over unnumbered links (i.e., links that do not
have IP addresses) involves two components: (a) the ability to carry
traffic engineering (TE) information about unnumbered links in IGP TE
extensions (ISIS or OSPF), and (b) the ability to specify unnumbered
links in MPLS TE signaling. The focus of this document is on the
latter.
Working Group Summary
The MPLS working group supported publication of this document.
