GTTP Draft

[Ronald Bonica <ronald.p.bonica@mci.com>]

Folks,

I have updated the generic tunnel tracing draft. It is available at
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-bonica-tunproto-05.txt. Please
review and comment.

Abstract
This document describes the Generic Tunnel Tracing Protocol (GTTP). GTTP
supports enhanced route-tracing applications. Network operators use enhanced
route-tracing applications to trace the path between any two points in an IP
network. Enhanced route-tracing applications can trace through a network's
forwarding plane, its control plane or both. Furthermore, enhanced
route-tracing applications can reveal details concerning tunnels that
support the traced path. Tunnel details can be revealed regardless of
tunneling technology. For example, enhanced route-tracing applications can
trace through an MPLS LSP as well as they can trace through an IP-in-IP
tunnel.
