Doubt - regarding "global label and space" in rsvp-te draft.

I don't believe that these are the same.  It believe platform-wide and
interface specific labels  has to deal with how the egress node assigns the
labels and the global label space is how the ingress node accepts them.  I
would like to know myself.  I am sending this to the MPLS mailing list for
clarification.

Hello Bill

Good day to you. :)

I have a doubt and can  you please clarify.

In the rsvp-te draft, we have mention of "Global label space" and "global
label".

Are these the same as the "Per platform label space" ie one label space for
the entire platform, and "generic label" respectively?

I am confused a bit.

Thanks in advance
with best regards
