With more and more enterprises using cloud based services, the
distances between the user and the applications are growing. A lot
of the current applications are designed to work across LAN's and
have various inherent assumptions. For multiple applications such as
High Performance Computing and Electronic Financial markets, the
response times are critical as is packet loss, while other
applications require more throughput.
[RFC3031] describes the architecture of MPLS based networks. This
draft extends the MPLS architecture to allow for latency, loss and
jitter as properties. It describes requirements and control plane
implication for latency and packet loss as a traffic engineering
performance metric in today's network which is consisting of
potentially multiple layers of packet transport network and optical
transport network in order to make a accurate end-to-end latency and
loss prediction before a path is established.
Note MPLS architecture for Multicast will be taken up in a future
version of the draft.
