1. A method for transporting multi-transport network context identifier (MTNC-ID) information, the method comprising:
encoding the MTNC-ID information into a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) header of a data packet; and
transmitting the data packet to a next node along a forwarding path, wherein the MTNC-ID information corresponds to an MTNC-ID that is associated with a set of resource provisioning requirements for one or more transport networks on the forwarding path to provision transport resources for forwarding traffic on the forwarding path.
