2999 Ginoza Aug 2001 Request for Comments Summary

This memo.

2998    Bernet          Nov 2000        A Framework for Integrated
                                        Services Operation over
                                        Diffserv Networks

This document describes a framework by which Integrated Services may be supported over Diffserv networks. This memo provides information for the Internet community.

2997 Bernet Nov 2000 Specification of the Null

Service Type

The Null Service allows applications to identify themselves to network Quality of Service (QoS) policy agents, using RSVP signaling. However, it does not require them to specify resource requirements. QoS policy agents in the network respond by applying QoS policies appropriate for the application (as determined by the network administrator). This mode of RSVP usage is particularly applicable to networks that combine differentiated service (diffserv) QoS mechanisms with RSVP signaling. In this environment, QoS policy agents may direct the signaled application's traffic to a particular diffserv class of service. [STANDARDS TRACK]

2996 Bernet Nov 2000 Format of the RSVP DCLASS

Object

discusses its use. [STANDARDS TRACK]

2992 Hopps Nov 2000 Analysis of an Equal-Cost

Multi-Path Algorithm

Equal-cost multi-path (ECMP) is a routing technique for routing packets along multiple paths of equal cost. The forwarding engine identifies paths by next-hop. When forwarding a packet the router must decide which next-hop (path) to use. This document gives an analysis of one method for making that decision. The analysis includes the performance of the algorithm and the disruption caused by changes to the set of next-hops. This memo provides information for the Internet community.

2991    Thaler          Nov 2000        Multipath Issues in Unicast
                                        and Multicast Next-Hop
                                        Selection

The effect of multipath routing on a forwarder is that the forwarder potentially has several next-hops for any given destination and must use some method to choose which next-hop should be used for a given data packet. This memo summarizes current practices, problems, and solutions. This memo provides information for the Internet community.

2968 Daigle Oct 2000 Mesh of Multiple DAG servers -

Results from TISDAG

This document defines the basic principle for establishing a mesh, that interoperating services should exchange index objects, according to the architecture of the mesh (e.g., hierarchical, or graph-like, preferably without loops!). The Common Indexing Protocol (CIP) is designed to facilitate the creation not only of query referral indexes, but also of meshes of (loosely) affiliated referral indexes. The purpose of such a mesh of servers is to implement some kind of distributed sharing of indexing and/or searching tasks across different servers. So far, the TISDAG (Technical Infrastructure for Swedish Directory Access Gateways) project has focused on creating a single referral index; the obvious next step is to integrate that into a larger set of interoperating services. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
