A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Benchmarking Methodology Working Group of the IETF. Title : Benchmarking Terminology for Protection Performance Author(s) : S. Poretsky Filename : draft-ietf-bmwg-protection-term-04.txt Pages : 28 Date : 2008-2-25 This document provides common terminology and metrics for benchmarking the performance of sub-IP layer protection mechanisms. The performance benchmarks are measured at the IP-Layer, so avoid dependence on specific sub-IP protection mechanisms. The benchmarks and terminology can be applied in methodology documents for different sub-IP layer protection mechanisms such as Automatic Protection Switching (APS), Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), Stateful High Availability (HA), and Multi-Protocol Label Switching Fast Reroute (MPLS-FRR).
