A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 5136 Title: Defining Network Capacity Author: P. Chimento, J. Ishac Status: Informational Date: February 2008 Mailbox: Philip.Chimento@jhuapl.edu, jishac@nasa.gov Pages: 14 Characters: 30682 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-ippm-bw-capacity-05.txt URL: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc5136.txt Measuring capacity is a task that sounds simple, but in reality can be quite complex. In addition, the lack of a unified nomenclature on this subject makes it increasingly difficult to properly build, test, and use techniques and tools built around these constructs. This document provides definitions for the terms 'Capacity' and 'Available Capacity' related to IP traffic traveling between a source and destination in an IP network. By doing so, we hope to provide a common framework for the discussion and analysis of a diverse set of current and future estimation techniques. This memo provides information for the Internet community. This document is a product of the IP Performance Metrics Working Group of the IETF.
