Having the worst time with this device sending half-written messages. I'm
not convinced that it's desirable to store live interface stats in the TED.
This would lead to significant additional load without much additional
utility.

RSVP-TE tracks it's reservations per interface anyway, and has provisions
to ensure that only those LSPs for which sufficient bandwidth is available
can successfully signal

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.

*[DD] Hmmm I disagree. *

*All 3 fields maybe used as they have subtle differences. *



*Residual BW =  Maximum Bandwidth minus the bandwidth currently *allocated*
to RSVP-TE LSPs.*

*Available BW = Residual bandwidth minus the measured bandwidth *used* for
the actual forwarding of non-RSVP-TE LSP packets. *

*BW Utilization = the actual utilization of the link (i.e.: as measured in
the router including both RSVP and non-RSVP)*



The other two could be calculated (not to mention, in this context residual
and available probably mean he same thing.

*[DD] “*residual and available*” are different, as above! *



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?

*[DD] Maybe we should have -  [<TE_Performance_Info>] making it optional?*
