WHERE DOES IT FIT IN THE PICTURE OF THE SUB-IP WORK

     This draft fits in the Control part of the sub-ip work.

WHY IS IT TARGETED AT THIS WG

This draft addresses the following CCAMP work items:

- Abstract link and path properties needed for link and path protection.
Define signalling mechanisms for path protection, diverse routing and fast
path restoration. Ensure that multi-layer path protection and restoration
functions are achievable using the defined
signalling and measurement protocols, either separately or in combination. 


JUSTIFICATION

  We believe this draft is justified for the CCAMP working group because it
identifies signaling/routing mechanisms that can be used for both span and
path protection.
