Routers are increasingly connected to a variety of smart modems.
Such a modem's incoming and outgoing link rates can be varied over
time with adaptive coding and modulation to suit the channel
characteristics. The link rate and conditions offered by the modem
to connected devices therefore vary. For connected devices to
condition traffic and get the most out of the modem's link capacity,
they need to know the modem's link conditions. This document
describes one simple method for the modem to advertise link rate and
other characteristics, via UDP messages, and discusses alternative
approaches to communicating this information.
