Re: [Lsr] LSR WG Adoption Poll for "Flexible Algorithms: Bandwidth, Delay, Metrics and Constraints" - draft-hegde-lsr-flex-algo-bw-con-02

Hi Peng shaofu,

As per the draft, if automatic metric calculation with reference bandwidth method is used to calculate the metric
Then as per your example s->D path will be chosen since metric is 10.
Lets say operator wants to choose S->X1->X2--->X10->D path then operator can manually assign higher bandwidth
Metric on S->D link which will ensure S->D path is not the least cost path.

Sorry for spelling mistakens in the previous email.

Hi WG,



I have a little doubt about the scheme described in this document.

See the following example:



S ---- X1 ----- X2 ---- ... ... ----- X10 ----- D

    \----------------------------------------------/



Suppose the links in S---X1---X2...---D have the same bandwidth  10G, and the link S-D has bandwidth 1G.

Suppose that we select "reference bandwidth = 100G", then,

each link  in S---X1---X2...---D will have the same bandwidth-metric  10 (i.e., 100/10)

link S-D will have a bandwidth-metric 100 (i.e., 100/1)



So flex-algo path from S to D based on bandwidth-metric will be S-D, not S---X1---X2...---D, because the later has a large cumulative bandwitdh-metric (i.e., 11*10).

But our expect path should not be S-D, but S---X1---X2...---D, as it has large bandwidth.

Do I misunderstand anything ?



Regards,

PSF
