QoS Routing Mechanisms and OSPF Extensions
RFC 2676, “QoS Routing Mechanisms and OSPF Extensions”, is an Experimental document published in August 1999 by G. Apostolopoulos, S. Kamat, D. Williams, R. Guerin, A. Orda, T. Przygienda. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This memo describes extensions to the OSPF protocol to support QoS routes. The focus of this document is on the algorithms used to compute QoS routes and on the necessary modifications to OSPF to support this function, e.g., the information needed, its format, how it is distributed, and how it is used by the QoS path selection process. This memo defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.
What “Experimental” means
Describes a specification that is part of a research or development effort, published so the community can gain experience with it.
