Abstract:
In particular networks such as those used by financial
institutions, network performance criteria such as latency are
becoming as critical to data path selection. However cost is still
an important consideration. This leads to a situation where path
calculation involves multiple metrics an more complex objective
functions.
When using GMPLS control plane, the ingress node may need to
request remote node to perform path computation or expansion. In
such cases, ingress node needs to convey the required objective
function to the remote node, to enable it to perform the desired
path computation. Similarly, there are cases the ingress needs to
indicate a TE metric bound for a loose segment that is expanded by
a remote node. This document defines extensions to the RSVP-TE
Protocol to allow an ingress node to request the required objective
function for the path computation, as well as a metric bound to
influence route computation decisions at a remote node(s).
