Subject: [mpls] What is the Range of Special Labels in draft-kompella-mpls-special-purpose-labels?

Hi Kireeti,

I have a couple of questions regarding this draft.

1)      What is the range of extended Special Purpose label suggested by this draft? Table 1 basically has all the labels in 2^10 range. Does the draft suggest that another RFC is required to define the Range?

2)      Section 5.3 suggests that a label could be in Special Purpose registry but not in Extended Special purpose label space. This conflicts with section 3.1 that suggests the Extended Range must include the Special purpose labels. So which one is correct?

Thanks
Shahram

Before starting the poll to see if there is wg consensus to make the

there is IPR on the document that needs to be disclosed.

This mail starts that IPR poll.

Are you aware of any IPR that applies to draft-kompella-mpls-special-purpose-labels?

If so, has this IPR been disclosed in compliance with IETF IPR  rules
(see RFCs 3979, 4879, 3669 and 5378 for more details).

If you are listed as a document author or contributor please respond to
this email regardless of whether or not you are aware of any relevant
IPR. *The response needs to be sent to the MPLS wg mailing list.* The
documents will not advance to the next stage until a response
has been received from each author and contributor.

If you are on the MPLS WG email list but are not listed as an author or

IPR that has not yet been disclosed in conformance with IETF rules.

Thanks, Ross
