Abstract:
Network architecture revolves around the concept of fitting the
design of a network to its purpose; of asking the question, "what
network will best fit these needs?" A part of fitting network design
to requirements is the problem of complexity, an idea often measured
by "seat of pants" methods. When would adding a particular protocol,
policy, or configuration be "too complex?" This document suggests a
series of continuums along which network complexity might be
measured. No suggestions are made in measuring complexity for each
of these continuums are provided; this is left for future documents.
