Dear WG,

I'm sure that some of you remember the discussion that took place with regards to the definition of hard versus soft preemption when we discussed the soft-preemption ID (http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-mpls-soft-preemption-08.txt).

At that time, I think that the only remaining item to move forward with the soft preemption ID was to document the circumstances under which TE LSP data/control states are removed, a particular case being related to preemption. Adrian, George and myself thus wrote a short ID (see below), the aim of which is to simply document node behavior upon sending/receiving a Path Error. 

Comments welcome.

Thanks.

JP.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 

directories.

Title : Node behavior upon originating and receiving Resource ReserVation Protocol (RSVP) Path Error message

Author(s) : J. Vasseur, et al.

Filename : draft-vasseur-mpls-3209-patherr-01.txt

Pages : 9

Date : 2006-10-22

The aim of this document is to describe a common practice with regard

   to the behavior of a node sending a Resource ReserVation Protocol

   (RSVP) Path Error message and to the behavior of a node receiving an

   RSVP Path Error message for a particular Multi-Protocol Label

   Switching - Traffic Engineering (MPLS-TE) Label Switched Path (LSP).

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.
