    Without ASIC that can support MTR in the industry now,  could
    Jafar share something with us why we need to

    develop MTR routing?

       I don't know if I fully understand the ASIC/lack-of-MTR-support
    comment and why that should stop Quagga from getting this support.
    We run Quagga on platforms that can do MTR if Quagga supports it.

    As of why do we need MTR - are you suggesting that it is not
    needed at all? or it doesn't bring anything to the table that we
    can't do using other techniques? Can you please elaborate?


I remember one customer using a combination of policy-based-routing and MPLS TE as an alternate solution.

I can see this working, but in my case MPLS/TE is not an option. What is the argument against MTR OSPF?
