Abstract:
This document extends the base Application-Layer Traffic Optimization
(ALTO) Protocol by generalizing the concept of "endpoint properties"
to entities defined by a wide set of objects, instead of only IP
addresses. Further, these properties are presented as maps, similar
to the network and cost maps in the base ALTO protocol. The protocol
is extended in two major directions. First, from endpoints
restricted to IP addresses to entities covering a wider and
extensible set of objects; second, from properties on specific
endpoints to entire entity property maps. These extensions introduce
additional features allowing entities and property values to be
specific to a given information resource. This is made possible by a
generic and flexible design of entity and property types.
