Abstract:
  This document describes use cases for gathering routing, forwarding
  and policy information, (hereafter referred to as topology
  information), about the network and reflecting changes to the
  topology back into the network and related systems.  It describes
  several applications that need to view or change the topology of the
  underlying physical or logical network.  This document further
  demonstrates a need for a "Topology Manager" and related functions
  that collects topology data from network elements and other data
  sources, coalesces the collected data into a coherent view of the
  overall network topology, and normalizes the network topology view
  for use by clients -- namely, applications that consume or want to
  change topology information.
