Pre-Congestion Notification (PCN) Boundary-Node Behavior for the Single Marking (SM) Mode of Operation
Year: 2012
Type: report
Abstract: Pre-Congestion Notification (PCN) is a means for protecting the quality of service for inelastic traffic admitted to a Diffserv domain.The overall PCN architecture is described in RFC 5559.This memo is one of a series describing possible boundary-node behaviors for a PCN-domain.The behavior described here is that for a form of measurement-based load control using two PCN marking states: notmarked and excess-traffic-marked.This behavior is known informally as the Single Marking (SM) PCN-boundary-node behavior. Status of This MemoThis document is not an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for examination, experimental implementation, and evaluation.This document defines an Experimental Protocol for the Internet community.This document is a product of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).It represents the consensus of the IETF community.It has received public review and has been approved for publication by the Internet Engineering Steering Group (IESG).Not all documents approved by the IESG are a candidate for any level of Internet Standard; see Section 2 of RFC 5741.
