We derive the architectural requirements for the routing protocols, signaling protocols and the MIBs to support such an idea. We also demonstrate how such a mechanism will reduce the crankback during LSP setup. A possible outline of the modifications to the CSPF algorithm and examples are presented. In the companion document {[}INTER\_AREA\_EXT{]} we elaborate on the extensions required for such architecture.}, }
