Abstract:
This document defines an ALTO extension that allows a resource to
provide not only preferences of network paths but also correlations
of network paths, including aggregations of network components and
their properties on the paths between different PIDs or endpoints.
The extended information can be used to improve the robustness and
performance for applications in some new usage scenarios, such as
high-speed data transfers and traffic optimization using in-network
storage and computation. This document introduces abstract network
element (ANE) as an abstraction for aggregations of network
components. It extends the base protocol and the Unified Property
extension to enable the capability of encoding such information in a
"path vector", i.e., an array of ANEs that are traversed by traffic
from a source to a destination.
