Abstract:
The Application-Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) protocol has been
standardized in RFC7285 to ease better-than-random overlay connection
management. Due to various reasons, optimization capabilities of
ALTO servers are limited by the fact that it may not be possible for
an ALTO server to compute costs for source/destination pairs
correctly if a source and/or a destination is outside the
administrative domain it belongs to. In other words, an ALTO server
may be generally unable to optimize the traffic with only locally
available topology information.
Therefore, it is proposed that operators of distinct administrative
domains may agree on topology- and policy-related information
exchange through a standardized inter-ALTO communication framework.
This document provides a rationale for design, standardization, and
implementation of the inter-ALTO communication framework.
