This document presents use cases that have a common feature that may
be addressed by encoding network action indicators and associated
ancillary data within MPLS packets. There is community interest in
extending the MPLS data plane to carry such indicators and ancillary
data to address these use cases.
The use cases described in this document are not an exhaustive set
but rather the ones that have been actively discussed by members of
the IETF MPLS, PALS, and DetNet Working Groups from the beginning of
work on MPLS Network Action (MNA) until the publication of this
document.
This document is a product of the Multiprotocol Label Switching Working Group
of the IETF.
