Hello BMWG,
We would like to bring to your attention the updated draft on basic MPLS forwarding that we will be submitting to the IETF as an individual submission (once submissions opens up again). There have been significant changes since the last version of the draft including:
* removal of many test cases thought to be out of scope
* rewriting of many cases to be less verbose
* addition of reload tests
http://www.employees.org/~aamer/draft-akhter-bmwg-mpls-meth-03.txt
Over the past several years MPLS networks have gained greater
popularity. However, there is no standard method to compare and
contrast the varying implementations and their strong and weak
points. This document proposes a methodology using common criteria
for the comparison of various implementations of basic MPLS
forwarding devices.
If there are any concerns or changes that need to be made please do not hesitate to contact us.
Regards,
Aamer Akhter

==================
Title : MPLS Benchmarking Methodology
Author(s) : Aamer Akhter and Rajiv Asati
Filename : draft-akhter-bmwg-mpls-meth-03.txt
Pages : 21
Date : 2007-11-25
The purpose of this draft is to describe a methodology specific to
the benchmarking of MPLS forwarding devices. The scope of this
benchmarking will be limited to various types of packet-forwarding
and delay measurements. It builds upon the tenets set forth in
RFC2544 [RFC2544], RFC1242 [RFC1242] and other IETF Benchmarking
The BMWG produces two major classes of documents: Benchmarking
Terminology documents and Benchmarking Methodology documents. The
Terminology documents present the benchmarks and other related
terms. The Methodology documents define the procedures required to
collect the benchmarks cited in the corresponding Terminology
documents.
