"We should be selective about the kind of traffic that flows over PTP LSPs
as these will be handled as a special case by the LSR. The only LSP user
plane traffic MUST be PTP, but the LSP MAY also carry essential
MPLS/MPLS-TP control plane traffic such as BFD and LSP-Ping."
Your suggestion above is fine as well, I don't have any major objections
to it.
I am still not sure if I understood your point. Are you suggesting that
all such packets be marked as NC?
I'm not talking marking at all.
When the LSR wants to send out the PTP message, should it go into the
normal output queuing mechanism or should it just be sent out first thing,
regardless of what the queuing configuration is (in that case, it'll beat
EF when it comes to "importance" for output queuing).
