RE: [mpls-tp] MPLS over OTN



Hi Francesco.

I guess I understand your concern. I believe the original intention was
to say implicitely "It MUST be possible to operate and configure the
MPLS-TP data (transport) plane without any IP functionality *in the data
plane*." My interpretation of these requirements is indeed that they
apply to the MPLS-TP data plane only, not the MPLS-TP-capable equipment,
nor the MPLS-TP control plane...

Anyway you're right, this could be confusing and it deserves a small
rewording.

Regards,

Julien

I agree with you, but I think that "and configure" should be removed.

How can you *configure* MPLS-TP data plane without IP (or OSI)?
Am I the only one that feel uncomfortable with this piece of text?
