Re: [Lsr] New draft on Flex-Algorithm Bandwidth Constraints

[Gyan Mishra <[e-mail]>]

William,

Understood.  From following the thread and draft basically like the RSVP TE
ERO link attributes "include" or "exclude" or applying infinity bits to
prune off low bandwidth links from the topology graph based on either new
"exclude maximum link delays" dynamic values or existing exclude link
affinity FAD static values.  Do I have it right?

Kind Regards

Gyan
