RFC 7823 Title: Performance-Based Path Selection for Explicitly Routed Label Switched Paths (LSPs) Using TE Metric Extensions Author: A. Atlas, J. Drake, S. Giacalone, S. Previdi Status: Informational Stream: IETF Date: May 2016 Mailbox: akatlas@juniper.net, jdrake@juniper.net, spencer.giacalone@gmail.com, sprevidi@cisco.com Pages: 10 Characters: 23256 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-teas-te-express-path-05.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc7823 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17487/RFC7823 In certain networks, it is critical to consider network performance criteria when selecting the path for an explicitly routed RSVP-TE Label Switched Path (LSP). Such performance criteria can include latency, jitter, and loss or other indications such as the conformance to link performance objectives and non-RSVP TE traffic load. This specification describes how a path computation function may use network performance data, such as is advertised via the OSPF and IS-IS TE metric extensions (defined outside the scope of this document) to perform such path selections. This document is a product of the Traffic Engineering Architecture and Signaling Working Group of the IETF. INFORMATIONAL: This memo provides information for the Internet community.
