SummaryThis Recommendation defines parameters that may be used in specifying and assessing the performance of speed, accuracy, dependability, and availability of packettransfer over a Label Switched Path on a Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) network. The defined parameters apply to end-to-end, point-to-point and multipoint-to-point LSP and to any MPLS domain that provides, or contributes to the provision of, packet transfer services. Two categories of MPLS networks are considered: 1) TE-LSP: Traffic Engineering Label Switched Path, or configured LSP. These are point-point paths. 2) LDP-based LSP: This includes point-to-point and multipoint to point LSPs. |
