The definitions presented in\r\nthis document do not provide exclusive or complete interpretations\r\nof MPLS-TP concepts. This document simply allows the MPLS-TP terms to\r\nbe applied within the Transport Network context.","pub_date":"December 2013","keywords":[],"obsoletes":[],"obsoleted_by":[],"updates":[],"updated_by":[],"see_also":[],"doi":"10.17487\/RFC7087","errata_url":null}
