Abstract :
Transport MPLS (T-MPLS) is a recent recommendation from ITU-T specifying a connection- oriented, packet-switched architecture for carrier class transport networks. Here discuss T-MPLS forwarding model, OA &M and control plane capabilities for connection supervision, performance and survivability.
