Re: Suppression of Downstream Alarms... and more
Hi folks,
In order to re-inforce the message sent by Germano
concerning our full support to LMP, i would like to
point out here that we have submitted together with
Jonathan an I-D dealing with Sonet/SDH extensions
for LMP.
This I-D can be found at (IETF website of course ;-)
http://search.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ansorge-ccamp-lmp-sonet-sdh-00.txt
Any feedback is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
- dimitri.
