[PCN] draft-taylor-pcn-piggyback-edge-behaviour-00



As promised, draft-taylor-pcn-piggyback-edge-behaviour-00 has been posted. Here is the Abstract:

Abstract

   Precongestion notification (PCN) is a means for protecting quality of
   service for inelastic traffic admitted to a Diffserv domain.  The
   overall PCN architecture is described in RFC 5559.  This memo
   describes a behaviour for PCN egress nodes known as the
   "piggybacking" edge behaviour, because it "piggybacks" PCN
   information in resource signalling messages.  This version of the
   memo describes two alternatives, where piggybacking is derived from
   the CL edge behaviour and where it is derived from the SM edge
   behaviour.  The SM and CL edge behaviours are specified in companion
   documents.

I will be updating the other two edge behaviour drafts shortly. Some other work I have been involved in has taken a great deal of time.
