Looks ok in concept, but there's a great deal of redundancy in the
performance info you describe. It seems that only one of the
residual/available/utilized fields would be needed. The other two could be
calculated (not to mention, in this context residual and available probably
mean he same thing.

THe delay and loss fields are also interesting, assuming good methods to
measure same are in place...

    Hi ,



[draft-medved-i2rs-topology-im-01] defines a TED (Traffic Engineering Data)
component ([RFC5305], [RFC3630]):

<ted-link> ::= <COLOR>

                     <MAX_LINK_BANDWIDTH>

                     <MAX_RESV_LINK_BANDWIDTH>

                     (<UNRESERVED_BANDWIDTH>...)

                     <TE_DEFAULT_METRIC>

                     [<srlg-attributes>]



Besides the factors proposed in that document, other factors such as
latency, limited bandwidth, packet loss, and jitter
([draft-ietf-isis-te-metric-extensions-01],
[draft-ietf-ospf-te-metric-extensions-05], [draft-wu-idr-te-pm-bgp-03]),
are all important that need to be taken into account in the topology info
model.



For example, shall we extend the TED component (i.e. including network
performance information ) as follows:

<ted-link> ::= <COLOR>

                     <MAX_LINK_BANDWIDTH>

                     <MAX_RESV_LINK_BANDWIDTH>

                     (<UNRESERVED_BANDWIDTH>...)

                     <TE_DEFAULT_METRIC>

<TE_Performance_Info>

                     [<srlg-attributes>]



<TE_Performance_Info> ::= <Unidirectional Link Delay>

                                                   <Min/Max Unidirectional
Link Delay>

                                                   <Unidirectional Delay
Variation>

                                                   <Unidirectional Packet
Loss>

                                                   <Unidirectional Residual
Bandwidth>

                                                   <Unidirectional
Available Bandwidth>

<Unidirectional Utilized Bandwidth>



What do you think?

Ran
