Abstract:
   The DMZ Link Bandwidth draft provides a way to load-balance traffic
   to a destination (which is in a different AS than the source) which
   is reachable via more than one path.  Typically, the link bandwidth
   (either configured on the link of the EBGP egress interface or set
   via a policy) is encoded in an extended community and then sent to
   the IBGP peer which employs multi-path.  The link-bandwidth value is
   then extracted from the path extended community and is used as a
   weight in the FIB, which does the load-balancing.  This draft extends
   the usage of the DMZ link bandwidth to another setting where the
   ingress BGP speaker requires knowledge of the cumulative bandwidth
   while doing the load-balancing.  The draft also proposes neighbor-
   level knobs to enable the link bandwidth extended community to be
   regenerated and then advertised to EBGP peers to override the default
   behavior of not advertising optional non-transitive attributes to
   EBGP peers.
