[Isis-wg] FYI Draft Metrics and Resource Classes for TE

[Don Fedyk]

We have submitted the draft: draft-fedyk-mpls-te-metrics-00.txt
for review to the following working groups:
- Traffic engineering
- MPLS
- IS-IS
- OSPF

We asked to present it to the TE and ISIS working groups.

Abstract

   There has recently been a lot of activity in defining the components
   for MPLS-based traffic engineering.  This includes the recent
   extensions of the Interior Gateway Protocols (IGPs) to carry metrics
   and resource class information about links.  This memo explores
   additional metrics that are useful for traffic engineering.  We also
   describe some of the subtleties associated with the use of the
   resource class (or color) vector that has been defined in the IGP
   extensions.
