Abstract:
The demands on the networking infrastructure are growing
exponentially; the drivers are bandwidth hungry rich media
applications, inter data center communications etc. In this context,
it is important to optimally use the bandwidth in the service
provider backbone networks which extensively use LAG/ECMP techniques
for bandwidth scaling. This internet draft describes the issues faced
in the service provider backbone in the context of LAG/ECMP and
formulates best practice recommendations for managing the bandwidth
efficiently in the service provider backbone.
