An important Operation, Administration and Maintenance requirement of the MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) is the ability to estimate the throughput (i.e. bandwidth) for an MPLS-TP connection which could be an MPLS-TP PW, LSP or Section. This document specifies OAM packets and protocol mechanisms to facilitate the efficient and precise measurement of throughput.
