Signaling Optimization Objective and Bounded Metrics for MPLS Fast Reroute Backup LSP Tunnels

This document introduces RSVP-TE signaling procedures that enable the head-end Label Switched Router (LSR) of a local-protection-desiring Label Switched Path (LSP) to influence the optimization objective and bounded metric constraints used for the path computation of a backup LSP tunnel at a Point of Local Repair (PLR).
