A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Multiprotocol Label Switching Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: Generalized MPLS - Signaling Functional Description
	Author(s)	: L. Berger et al.
	Filename	: draft-ietf-mpls-generalized-signaling-08.txt
	Pages		: 32
	Date		: 26-Apr-02
	
This document describes extensions to MPLS signaling required to
support Generalized MPLS.  Generalized MPLS extends the MPLS control
plane to encompass time-division (e.g. SONET/SDH ADMs), wavelength
(optical lambdas) and spatial switching (e.g. incoming port or fiber
to outgoing port or fiber).  This document presents a functional
description of the extensions.  Protocol specific formats and
mechanisms, and technology specific details are specified in separate
documents.

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.
		
		
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
