A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Reduction of BGP Alternate Paths from Inter-Exchange Points Author(s) : Enke Chen Pradosh Mohapatra Filename : draft-chen-bgp-path-reduction-00.txt Pages : 6 Date : 2012-09-17 Abstract: In this document we present a mechanism that enhances the "IGP-metric based MED" approach so that load balancing is maintained while limiting the number of BGP alternate paths carried in a network. The mechanism involves the use of a "scale factor" to scale down the IGP metrics for the purpose of setting MEDs, and is thus termed "scaled IGP-metric based MED".
