DESCRIPTION
"Table of GMPLS Labels. This table allows the representation of the more complex label forms required for GMPLS that cannot be held within the TEXTUAL-CONVENTION MplsLabel; that is, labels that cannot be encoded within 32 bits. It is, nevertheless, also capable of holding 32-bit labels or regular MPLS Labels if desired.
Each entry in this table represents an individual GMPLS Label value. The representation of Labels in tables in other MIB modules may be achieved by a reference to an entry in this table by means of a row pointer into this table. The indexing of this table provides for arbitrary indexing and also for concatenation of labels.
For an example of label concatenation, see RFC 3945, section 7.1.
In essence, a GMPLS Label may be composite in order to identify a set of resources in the data plane. Practical examples are timeslots and wavelength sets (which are not contiguous like wavebands).
The indexing mechanism allows multiple entries in this table to be seen as a sequence of labels that should be concatenated.
Ordering is potentially very sensitive for concatenation."
