Hello,

Looking into section 4.2 of RFC 3032, I find that the MPLS CP protocol has value '0x8281'.

However, the list on the IANA homepage indicates the following:
* 8281            Tag Switching - Unicast                         [Davie]
* 8283            Tag Switching - Multicast                       [Davie]

I have 2 questions:

1/ Does the use 'tag switching - unicast' on the IANA homepage indeed correspond
to the use for MPLSCP as intended in RFC 3032?

2/ Is the value '8283' as specified on the IANA homepage, not meant to be used for
MPLS at all (since only 1 NCP -MPLS CP- is used for both unicast and multicast MPLS traffic)?




Regards,

     Francis.
