Pre-Congestion Notification (PCN) is a means for protecting the
quality of service for inelastic traffic admitted to a Diffserv
domain. The overall PCN architecture is described in RFC 5559. This
memo is one of a series describing possible boundary-node behaviors
for a PCN-domain. The behavior described here is that for a form of
measurement-based load control using three PCN marking states: not-
marked, threshold-marked, and excess-traffic-marked. This behavior
is known informally as the Controlled Load (CL) PCN-boundary-node
behavior. This document defines an Experimental Protocol for the
Internet community.
This document is a product of the Congestion and Pre-Congestion Notification Working Group of the IETF.
