Abstract:
   The Application-Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) protocol [RFC7285]
   has defined several resources and services to provide clients with
   basic network information.  However, the base ALTO protocol and
   latest extensions only provide end-to-end metrics, which are
   insufficient to satisfy the demands of solving more complex network
   optimization problems.  This document introduces an extension to the
   base ALTO protocol, namely the path-vector extension, which allows
   ALTO clients to query information such as capacity regions for a
   given set of flows.  A non-normative example called multi-flow
   scheduling is presented to illustrate the limitations of existing
   ALTO (endpoint) cost maps.  After that, details of the extension are
   defined.
