Abstract
Techniques are described for managing a plurality of requests for a change in bandwidth for a resource reservation label switched path ('LSP') of a ring network. For example, a method may include receiving, by a network device and from an egress network device of a ring network, a resource reservation request message to establish a multipoint-to-point (MP2P) ring label switched path (LSP). The method may also include modifying, by the network device, the resource reservation request message to specify a request for a change in bandwidth for a segment from the network device to the egress network device of the MP2P ring LSP. The method may also include sending, by the network device and to a downstream network device along the MP2P ring LSP, the modified resource reservation request message.
