RFC 7537: IANA Registries for LSP Ping Code Points
This RFC has been replaced. Do not implement against it for new work — it was formally obsoleted by RFC 8029.
Current document in this lineage: RFC 8029 — Detecting Multiprotocol Label Switched (MPLS) Data-Plane Failures
In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC
RFCs 4379 and 6424 created name spaces for Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label Switched Path (LSP) Ping. However, those RFCs did not create the corresponding IANA registries for Downstream Mapping object Flags (DS Flags), Multipath Types, Pad TLVs, and Interface and Label Stack Address Types. There is now a need to make further code point allocations from these name spaces. This document updates RFCs 4379 and 6424 in that it creates IANA registries for that purpose.
