Hello All
 
 Why the CR-LDP Tunnel Resource Table is added in the draft-ietf-mpls-te-mib-07.txt.

        It was added to support CD-LDP resources for tunnels. :P

 There is also a mplsTunnelResourceTable which has all the parameters
 of the mplsTunnelCRLDPResTable.

        Yes, I believe that is a typo that needs to be fixed in the next
revision. The duplicated objects that are in the CD-LDP table
will be removed, as they can be gotten from the base resource
table.

 And the note specifically says that this is in addition to the Tunnel Resource Table .
 
The mplsTunnelCRLDPResTable allows a manager to
          specify which CR-LDP-specific resources are desired
          for an MPLS tunnel if that tunnel is signaled using
          CR-LDP.
Note that these attributes are in addition
          to those specified in mplsTunnelResourceTable.
This
          table also allows several tunnels to point to a
          single entry in this table, implying that these
          tunnels should share resources.

 
And the parameters of the table are same expect the mplsTunnelCRLDPResFlags.
Can you please tell me what is the differance between these 2 tables and why is this
needed ?
