Here are some comments on draft-ietf-bmwg-igp-dataplane-conv-meth-00.txt. The draft is focusing mainly on convergence time when things break. It may also be interesting to study the convergence time when traffic goes from backup path to preferred path. An interesting test case is when ECMP is used on the SUT and we want to benchmark convergence time. I do not think that the current methodology will work for this case because some traffic will go over the "backup path" as well. This could be fixed by measuring the traffic on the "prefered path" and when this traffic is rerouted to the "backup path" calculate convergence time based on that. I am not sure however is if is possible to produce comparable results when using ECMP ? (I guess it somewhat implementation dependent function).
