Such a thing would work for RSVP or any of the stateful connection setups but alas, this is not fashionable right now. Unfortunately, generic hierarchy with reachability summarization ends up  with very sub-optimal routing or black-holing on aggregates since we cannot "back-off" generic LPM packet forwarding when we realize we're @ a dead end due to aggregation. To prevent bi-furcation of topology or transit horizontals several solutions exist, one of which (configure hierarchy statically everywhere) the current draft has in now but alas, the topology is star of stars (you can actually see CLOS conceptually as something like this as well ;-)


Hi Tony,

The modern solution of choice is to relegate all of the traffic engineering to an out-of-band controller that no longer operates in real-time and has the scale to span levels and areas.
