This document describes extensions to the OSPF version 2 and 3
protocols to support Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) and
Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE) for multiple
Autonomous Systems (ASes).  OSPF-TE v2 and v3 extensions are defined
for the flooding of TE information about inter-AS links that can be
used to perform inter-AS TE path computation.

No support for flooding information from within one AS to another AS
is proposed or defined in this document.  [STANDARDS TRACK]
