Abstract:
This document specifies an extension to the base Application-Layer
Traffic Optimization (ALTO) Protocol that generalizes the concept of
"endpoint properties", which were so far tied to IP addresses, to
entities defined by a wide set of objects. Further, these properties
are presented as maps, similar to the network and cost maps in the
base ALTO protocol. While supporting the endpoints and related
endpoint property service defined in RFC7285, the protocol is
extended in two major directions. First, from endpoints restricted
to IP addresses to entities covering a wider and extensible set of
objects; second, from properties on specific endpoints to entire
entity property maps. These extensions introduce additional features
allowing entities and property values to be specific to a given
information resource. This is made possible by a generic and
flexible design of entity and property types.
