Abstract:
Network administrators typically provision QoS policies for their
application traffic (such as voice, video) based on SLAs negotiated
with their providers, and translate those SLAs to vendor specific
configuration language. Both learning of SLA, either thru SLA
documents or via some other out-of-band method, and translating them
to vendor specific configuration language is a complex, many times
manual, process and prone to errors. This document proposes an in-
band method of SLA signaling which can help to simplify some of the
complexities.
This document defines an operational transitive attribute to signal
SLA details in-band, across administrative boundaries (considered as
Autonomous Systems (AS)), and thus simplify/speed-up some of the
complex tasks.
Though the use-case with the proposed attribute is explicitly defined
in this document, purpose of this attribute is not limited to this
use-case only.
