The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Basic BGP Convergence Benchmarking Methodology for Data Plane Convergence' (draft-ietf-bmwg-bgp-basic-convergence-05.txt) as Informational RFC This document is the product of the Benchmarking Methodology Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Joel Jaeggli and Benoit Claise. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bmwg-bgp-basic-convergence/ Technical Summary This document describes a methodology to benchmark BGP convergence, utilizing terminology from RFC 4098. In particular, this draft describes a methodology for benchmarking the data plane FIB convergence performance of BGP, applying to both IPv4 and IPv6 topologies with 3 or 4 nodes. Working Group Summary The -00 version of the draft was submitted in July 2013, and with decent feedback and discussion from the WG, the authors were able to submit a -01 document in March 2014, that moved into WGLC. At that time, a review from the Routing Directorate provided valuable feedback, which resulted in the document returning to the WG, and the authors revising the document based on this feedback, and WG feedback. -02 of the draft was introduced in June 2014, and moved to WGLC in September 2014. There've been no major issues or concerns raised, no heated debates or serious negative stances taken against this draft. Document Quality This document is in decent shape, being readable, reviewed both internally and external to the working group, and has had attentive authors answering and addressing incoming feedback in a timely manner, leading to a stronger, easily consumed document. Personnel Sarah Banks is the document shepherd. Joel Jaeggli is the responsible AD.
