Requirements for the Dynamic Partitioning of Switching Elements
RFC 3532, “Requirements for the Dynamic Partitioning of Switching Elements”, is an Informational document published in May 2003 by T. Anderson, J. Buerkle. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document identifies a set of requirements for the mechanisms used to dynamically reallocate the resources of a switching element (e.g., an ATM switch) to its partitions. These requirements are particularly critical in the case of an operator creating a switch partition and then leasing control of that partition to a third party. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
