Abstract:
[RFC6391] describes a mechanism that uses an additional label (Flow
Label) in the MPLS label stack that allows Label Switch Routers to
balance flows within Pseudowires at a finer granularity than the
individual Pseudowires across the Equal Cost Multiple Paths (ECMPs)
that exists within the Packet Switched Network (PSN).
Furthermore,[RFC6391] defines the LDP protocol extensions required to
synchronize the flow label states between the ingress and egress PEs
when using the signaling procedures defined in the [RFC4447].
This draft defines protocol extensions required to synchronize flow
label states among PEs when using the BGP-based signaling procedures
defined in [RFC4761]. These protocol extensions are equally
applicable to point-to-point L2VPNs defined in [RFC6624].
