An important Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) requirement of the MPLS Transport Profile (MPLS-TP) is the ability to measure the throughput (i.e. bandwidth) of an MPLS-TP connection which could be an MPLS-TP PseudoWire (PW), Label Switched Path (LSP) or Section. This document specifies the OAM packet formats and procedures for both one-way and two-way throughput measurement in MPLS-TP.
