This bitmask indicates the level of link protection required. A value of zero (no bits set) indicates that any protection may be used. The following describes these bitfields: extraTraffic Indicates that the LSP should use links that are protecting other (primary) traffic. Such LSPs may be preempted when the links carrying the (primary) traffic being protected fail. unprotected Indicates that the LSP should not use any link layer protection. shared Indicates that a shared link layer protection scheme, such as 1:N protection, should be used to support the LSP. dedicatedOneToOne Indicates that a dedicated link layer protection scheme, i.e., 1:1 protection, should be used to support the LSP. dedicatedOnePlusOne Indicates that a dedicated link layer protection scheme, i.e., 1+1 protection, should be used to support the LSP. enhanced Indicates that a protection scheme that is more reliable than Dedicated 1+1 should be used, e.g., 4 fiber BLSR/MS-SPRING. This object is only meaningful if mplsTunnelLSPEncoding is not set to 'tunnelLspNotGmpls'.
