Abstract:
When setting up a label switched path (LSP) in Generalized MPLS and
MPLS/TE networks, the completion of the signaling process does not
necessarily mean that the cross connection along the LSP have been
programmed accordingly and in a timely manner. Meanwhile, the
completion of signaling process may be used by LSP users or
applications that control their use as indication that data path has
become usable. The existence of the inconsistency between the
signaling messages and cross connection programing, and the possible
failure of cross connection programming, if not properly treated,
will result in data loss or even application failure.
Characterization of this performance can thus help designers to
improve the way in which LSPs are used and to make applications or
tools that depend on and use LSPs more robust. This document defines
a series of performance metrics to evaluate the connectivity of data
path in the signaling process.
