	Title		: Considerations on Bandwidth Constraints Models for 
                          DS-TE

This document provides input for the selection of a default Bandwidth 
Constraints Model for Diff-Serv-aware MPLS Traffic Engineering (DS-
TE). 
It discusses a number of considerations on Bandwidth Constraints 
Models and how the Maximum Allocation Model and the Russian Dolls 
Model address these considerations.  
While this document may not exhaustively cover all possible 
considerations for selection of a Bandwidth Constraints model, we 
feel it covers the most important considerations for practical DS-TE 
deployment. 
We conclude that the Russian Dolls Bandwidth Constraint Model is a 
good default Bandwidth Constraint Model for DS-TE.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in

	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.
