	Title		: Tunneling Multiplexed Compressed RTP in MPLS

This document describes a method to improve the bandwidth efficiency
of voice transmission over an IP/MPLS network by combining RTP
compression, PPP multiplexing and MPLS tunneling. This proposal does
not require any additions or modifications to existing protocols, and
therefore should be fully interoperable with existing implementations
of RTP compression and PPP multiplexing. It only requires specific
use of some attributes of MPLS signalling protocols to setup a pair
of unidirectional MPLS tunnels providing a bidirectional link for
compressed RTP over PPP.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
