The IESG has received a request from the Multiprotocol Label Switching WG (mpls) to consider the following document: - 'Synonymous Flow Label Framework' <draft-ietf-mpls-sfl-framework-08.txt> as Informational RFC
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the [email protected] mailing lists by 2020-07-06. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to [email protected] instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract RFC 8372 (MPLS Flow Identification Considerations) describes the requirement for introducing flow identities within the MPLS architecture. This document describes a method of accomplishing this by using a technique called Synonymous Flow Labels in which labels which mimic the behaviour of other labels provide the identification service. These identifiers can be used to trigger per-flow operations on the packet at the receiving label switching router.
