RFC 8395: Extensions to BGP-Signaled Pseudowires to Support Flow-Aware Transport Labels

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

This document defines protocol extensions required to synchronize flow label states among Provider Edges (PEs) when using the BGP-based signaling procedures. These protocol extensions are equally applicable to point-to-point Layer 2 Virtual Private Networks (L2VPNs). This document updates RFC 4761 by defining new flags in the Control Flags field of the Layer2 Info Extended Community.
