A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the IS-IS for IP Internets Working Group of the IETF. Title : IS-IS Traffic Engineering (TE) Metric Extensions Author(s) : Stefano Previdi Spencer Giacalone Dave Ward John Drake Alia Atlas Clarence Filsfils Filename : draft-ietf-isis-te-metric-extensions-00.txt Pages : 17 Date : 2013-06-17 Abstract: In certain networks, such as, but not limited to, financial information networks (e.g. stock market data providers), network performance criteria (e.g. latency) are becoming as critical to data path selection as other metrics. This document describes extensions to IS-IS TE [RFC5305] such that network performance information can be distributed and collected in a scalable fashion. The information distributed using ISIS TE Metric Extensions can then be used to make path selection decisions based on network performance. Note that this document only covers the mechanisms with which network performance information is distributed. The mechanisms for measuring network performance or acting on that information, once distributed, are outside the scope of this document.
