Service Provider Transport requirements
• Connection-oriented paths
• Static Provisioning; No dynamic Control Plane
• Very extensive Operation, Administration and Maintenance
(OAM) capabilities
• Automatic Protection Switching; Less than 50 milliseconds
• “Point and Click” Network Management

Background: MPLS & The Transport Profile
• Multi-protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is already widely as a service
protocol in the core and is the prefect candidate for L2/L3 Transport
• However, traditional MPLS lacked some essential OAM tools to
address transport requirements. There was also more to MPLS than
was needed by transport networks.
• The way forward is to enhance MPLS to provide the needed OAM
tools and create a “profile”, or subset, of MPLS suited to meet
transport requirements
MPLS
MPLS-TP
MPLS
Extensions
In summary: MPLS-TP “is” a subset/extension of
MPLS

MPLS-TP Objectives
(from draft-ietf-mpls-tp-framework-07.txt)
• To enable MPLS to be deployed in a transport
network and operated in a similar manner to existing
transport technologies.
• Enable MPLS to support packet transport services
with a similar degree of predictability, reliability and
OAM to that found in existing transport networks
MPLS‐TP Enables connection‐oriented optical packet transport based on widely
deployed MPLS protocols, with transport‐grade performance & operation
similar to existing transport networks; ensures compatibility with IP/MPLS

• Integrating MPLS-TP & DWDM into single Packet Optical Transport Systems (P-OTS)
• E-2-E MPLS solution extends Cisco’s MPLS leadership and footprint

MPLS-TP Standards Update
2008
May 2005
• 7 IETF RFCs published
• 17 Working Group Drafts (4 in IETF editor’s Queue)
• 35 Individual Drafts Active
History of T-MPLS and MPLS-TP
ITU-T started T-MPLS work. T-MPLS broke MPLS Forwarding paradigm, Jeopardizing MPLS networks
Aug. 2007
IETF ultimatum t to the ITU-TT
Jan. 2008 ITU-T withdrawal of T-MPLS draft G.8114
Apr. 2008
IETF/ITU-T Consensus: T-MPLS was TERMINATED. Start joint work on MPLS_TP
T-MPLS is still DEAD!
Some vendors like Huawei continue to claim their PTN solution to be standardsbased
MPLS-TP, misleading customers & creating market confusion
Stable protocol standard specifications from the IETF will be ready for publication by
end of this year; first phase complete by mid 2011
