IETF RFC 3270 PDF

This document defines a flexible solution for support of Differentiated Services (Diff-Serv) over Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) networks.

This solution allows the MPLS network administrator to select how Diff-Serv Behavior Aggregates (BAs) are mapped onto Label Switched Paths (LSPs) so that he/she can best match the Diff-Serv, Traffic Engineering and protection objectives within his/her particular network. For instance, this solution allows the network administrator to decide whether different sets of BAs are to be mapped onto the same LSP or mapped onto separate LSPs.
