Acee, This draft defines a new metric-type called "bandwidth metric" and available for use in flex-algo. The specifics are described in section 4 of the draft. Instead of defining a stand alone "bandwidth metric type", the draft defines "generic metric" Where there is a provision for metric-type/metric value pair. Defines standard metric types and to make it Flexible there is user defined metric-types "Bandwidth metric" is one of the standard metric-types of the generic metric that this draft has defined and used.

Be cautious of content] +LSR List…. Hi Shraddha, I’ll request the ADs approve early allocation. However, I recall unanswered questions as to whether the generic metric was required and how it would be used. It isn’t required for the bandwidth constraints defined in the draft. Can you comment on this point?
