In contrast to the present Internet architecture, a path-aware
internetworking architecture has two important properties: it exposes
the properties of available Internet paths to endpoints, and it
provides for endpoints and applications to use these properties to
select paths through the Internet for their traffic. While this
property of "path awareness" already exists in many
Internet-connected networks within single domains and via
administrative interfaces to the network layer, a fully path-aware
internetwork expands these concepts across layers and across the
Internet.
This document poses questions in path-aware networking, open as of
2021, that must be answered in the design, development, and
deployment of path-aware internetworks. It was originally written to
frame discussions in the Path Aware Networking Research Group
(PANRG), and has been published to snapshot current thinking in this
space.
This document is a product of the Path Aware Networking RG of the IRTF.
