Re: [RPRWG] MPLS VPN (RFC 2547) over RPR
MPLS and 2547 VPN should be able to run over RPR
as it does today over ethernet. However, other MPLS
issues such as TE will require extensions to IP to
take into consideration ingress and egress points
around the ring as well as alternate paths
available (other than the shortest path).
FRR features also require synchronization with RPR's
resiliency.
These issues we plan to address within the IPORPR WG
in the IETF after 802.17 specs have firmed. The IPORPR WG
is currently in hibernation awaiting firmer 802.17 specs.
