Section 3 says:
[RFC4328] describes GMPLS signaling extensions to support the control for the 2001 revision of the G.709 specification. However, [RFC7096] does not provide the means to signal all the new Signal Types and related mapping and multiplexing functionalities. Moreover, it supports only the deprecated auto-MSI (Multiframe Structure Identifier) mode, which assumes that the Tributary Port Number (TPN) is automatically assigned in the transmit direction and not checked in the receive direction.
It should say:
[RFC4328] describes GMPLS signaling extensions to support the control for the 2001 revision of the G.709 specification. However, as described in[RFC7096], that document does not provide the means to signal all the new Signal Types and related mapping and multiplexing functionalities. Moreover, it supports only the deprecated auto-MSI (Multiframe Structure Identifier) mode, which assumes that the Tributary Port Number (TPN) is automatically assigned in the transmit direction and not checked in the receive direction.
Notes:
RFC 7096 is the analysis of pre-existing GMPLS signalling. It does not contain any protocol extensions itself, but looks at the mechanisms provided in RFC 4328.
