I agree. > And the paragraph on RSVP is really not relevant for this comparison. I think it is, because RSVP for IntServ really does negotiate a QoS spec along the path. > Unless > want to edit, as RSVP-TE does do "discovery". Not quite in the same sense, though. On balance it's a bit irrelevant to the point. Thanks! Brian > > > _______________________________________________ Anima mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/anima
