General switch management protocol (GSMP) is an open interface
protocol between a label switch and a controller, and it provides
connection, configuration, event, performance management and
synchronization. In the GSMP interface, network management functions
can be located either in the controller or in the label switch. We
discussed the implementation complexity of a label switch and the
efficiency of resource usage according to the location of network
management functions.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
