The IESG has received a request from the Multiprotocol Label Switching WG (mpls) to consider the following document: - 'MPLS Transport Profile lock Instruct and Loopback Functions' <draft-ietf-mpls-tp-li-lb-07.txt> as a Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2011-10-18. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract Two useful Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) functions in a transport network are "lock" and "loopback". The lock function enables an operator to lock a transport path such that it does not carry client traffic, but can continue to carry OAM messages and may carry test traffic. The loopback function allows an operator to set a specific node on the transport path into loopback mode such that it returns all received data. This document specifies the lock function for MPLS networks and describes how the loopback function operates in MPLS networks. This document updates RFC 6371 section 7.1.1. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mpls-tp-li-lb/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-mpls-tp-li-lb/ The following IPR Declarations may be related to this I-D: http://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/1439/ This document contains a "downref" to RFC 6371, the Informational RFC that it updates.
