PG 9 How to carry sU-PE, dU-PE Prefixes? Two possibilities, orthogonal to the procedures described in the draft 1. Use a Separate MS-PW TLV Accommodates also PW FEC 128 (PWID) Implementations Ready to mandate implementation of PW FEC 129 for MS-PWs? Ready to start assigning AII Types – see draft-metz-aii-aggregate? FEC TLV Label TLV Other TLVs …. MS PW TLV Source U-PE “Prefix” – Identifies the Originating U-PE Allows peer discovery or verification Destination U-PE “Prefix” – Identifies the Remote U-PE Enables S-PE to automatically determine Next “PW Segment” 1’.
