Best Practices for Optimal LAG/ECMP Component Link Utilization in Provider Backbone networks - Key ideas The suggested techniques in this draft for optimal LAG/ECMP component link utilization are meant to put forth a locally optimized solution, i.e. local in the sense of both measuring and optimizing for long-lived large flows at individual nodes in the network. This approach would not yield a globally optimal placement of a large, long-lived flow across several nodes in the network which some networks may desire/require. On the other hand, this may be adequate for some operators for the following reasons 1) Different links in the network experience different levels of utilization and, thus, a more "targeted" solution is needed for those few hot-spots in the network 2) Some networks may lack end-to-end visibility. Areas which need further discussion Standards-based data model for exporting long-lived large flow information from routers to a central management entity. Your comments/feedback would be much appreciated.

We have very good feedback so far from Shane Amante; your comments would be much appreciated. http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-krishnan-opsawg-large-flow-load-balancing/ Thanks, ram
