Abstract:
Network administrators typically enforce Quality of Service (QoS)
policies according to Service Level Agreement (SLA) with their
providers. The enforcement of such policies often relies upon
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 optional transitive attribute to signal SLA
details in-band, across administrative boundaries (considered as
Autonomous Systems (AS)), thus simplifying and facilitating some of
the complex provisioning tasks.
Though the use case with the proposed BGP attribute is explicitly
defined in this document, purpose of this attribute is not limited to
this use case only.
