Doubt Related to SDH/SONET interface : GMPLS

["manoj juneja" <manojkumarjuneja@hotmail.com>]

Hi All,
       If minimum reservable bandwidth of an STM-16 link in interface 
switching capability TLV is VC-3, does this mean it can't switch VC
-2/VC-11 etc ? In other words, if a request comes for establishing
an LSP with signal type as VC-11, it can't establish this LSP ?
STM-16 has 16 branches, if each of these branches support different min. 
reservable bandwidth then does this mean it will be having 16 interface 
switching capability TLVs ?
Is this a deviation from SDH/SONET where u can't assume that if
minimum reservable bandwidth is say VC-2 and max. reservable bandwidth is 
say STM-1, it doesn't mean that all the signals viz. VC-4, VC-12, VC-3 
etc.(i.e. that fall under STM-1 and VC-2) are supported ?

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Regards,
manoj.
