Performance Analysis of Inter-Domain Path Computation Methodologies

Overview

RFC 5468, “Performance Analysis of Inter-Domain Path Computation Methodologies”, is an Informational document published in April 2009 by S. Dasgupta, J. de Oliveira, JP. Vasseur. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

This document presents a performance comparison between the per-domain path computation method and the Path Computation Element (PCE) Architecture-based Backward Recursive Path Computation (BRPC) procedure. Metrics to capture the significant performance aspects are identified, and detailed simulations are carried out on realistic scenarios. A performance analysis for each of the path computation methods is then undertaken. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
