RFC 4209: Link Management Protocol (LMP) for Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) Optical Line Systems

Still current, but amended. Parts of this document are changed or extended by RFC 6898. Read both.

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

The Link Management Protocol (LMP) is defined to manage traffic engineering (TE) links. In its present form, LMP focuses on peer nodes, i.e., nodes that peer in signaling and/or routing. This document proposes extensions to LMP to allow it to be used between a peer node and an adjacent optical line system (OLS). These extensions are intended to satisfy the "Optical Link Interface Requirements" described in a companion document. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
