A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Congestion and Pre-Congestion Notification Working Group of the IETF. Title : Requirements for Signaling of (Pre-) Congestion Information in a DiffServ Domain Author(s) : Georgios Karagiannis Tom Taylor Kwok Ho Chan Michael Menth Philip Eardley Filename : draft-ietf-pcn-signaling-requirements-08.txt Pages : 7 Date : 2012-02-08 Precongestion notification (PCN) is a means for protecting quality of service for inelastic traffic admitted to a Diffserv domain. The overall PCN architecture is described in RFC 5559. This memo describes the requirements for the signaling applied within the PCN domain: (1) PCN-feedback-information is carried from the PCN-egress- node to the decision point;(2) the decision point may ask the PCN- ingress-node to measure, and report back, the rate of sent PCN- traffic between that PCN-ingress-node and PCN-egress-node. The decision point may be either collocated with the PCN-ingress-node or a centralized node (in the first case, (2) is not required). The signaling requirements pertain in particular to two edge behaviors, "controlled load (CL)" and "single marking (SM)".
