VCID Notification over ATM link for LDP

Abstract: The Asynchronous Transfer Mode Label Switching Router (ATM-LSR) is one of the major applications of label switching. Because the ATM layer labels (VPI and VCI) associated with a VC rewritten with new value at every ATM switch nodes, it is not possible to use them to identify a VC in label mapping messages. The concept of Virtual Connection Identifier (VCID) is introduced to solve this problem. VCID has the same value at both ends of a VC. This document specifies the procedures for the communication of VCID val… Show more

“…The existing solutions described in [3,4] require either having an IP/MPLS Router on top of the ATM switches, or establishing a tunnel across the ATM backbone. A more appropriate and general solution would be that integrating both MPLS and ATM technologies.…”

“…In this paper we suggest adding a new Generic Identifier Information Element in the SETUP message with an Identifier related standard/application field of value (0x06) corresponding to MPLS, and an identifier type of value (0x02) corresponding to Resource. In this case the Identifier is the MPLS VCID used in [12] to solve the problem of using the VPI/VCI field as MPLS label in SVC ATM networks. This identifier is used to identify an ATM VC in an LDP mapping message and is transported end to end between ATM LSR to achieve the same value at both ends.…”
