RFC 7810: IS-IS Traffic Engineering (TE) Metric Extensions
This RFC has been replaced. Do not implement against it for new work — it was formally obsoleted by RFC 8570.
Current version: RFC 8570 — IS-IS Traffic Engineering (TE) Metric Extensions
In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC
In certain networks, such as, but not limited to, financial information networks (e.g., stock market data providers), network- performance criteria (e.g., latency) are becoming as critical to data-path selection as other metrics. This document describes extensions to IS-IS Traffic Engineering Extensions (RFC 5305) such that network-performance information can be distributed and collected in a scalable fashion. The information distributed using IS-IS TE Metric Extensions can then be used to make path-selection decisions based on network performance. Note that this document only covers the mechanisms with which network-performance information is distributed. The mechanisms for measuring network performance or acting on that information, once distributed, are outside the scope of this document.
