Hi Greg, Additionally, in a vacuum light will only travel 300 meters in a microsecond. So, in a nanosecond, that is less than a foot. What transmission technology and application do you anticipate that will require this this precision?
Off by a few magnitude; light travels just shy of 300,000,000 meters per second. Consider that 100Gbps links transmit 100 bits every nanosecond. So about 5 nanoseconds to send a minimum sized ethernet frame (sans the pre/postamble). Thanks, Chris.

Do we have that kind of accuracy from any of our measurement tools? Is that even on the horizon? I haven’t seen that… If it is time for nanosecond level measurement, then is it time to shift to floating point to give us more range?

The unit for the maximum link delay in the draft is a microsecond. There is a group of services that require a highly accurate bounded delay. Have you considered using a nanosecond as the unit for the link delay?

Be cautious of content] Hi Shraddha, Thanks. Actually, I don't really want to define other metric types. Let's go back to the bandwidth-metric related to bandwidth capability. My worry is that bandwidth-metric (whether it is automatically calculated or manually configured) is not cumulative in nature, <Shraddha> Yes that is correct. which is different from IGP default metric/TE metric/delay metric, so that SPF based on bandwidth-metric may get an unexpected path (see the example of the original mail). Can more text be added in the draft to describe why this can work ? <Shraddha> Knowing that metric derived inversely from the link bandwidth is not additive in nature, should set the expectation right. I can add some text in this regard.

Generic metric allows any standard or user-defined type metric to be configured. The draft allows for any computing application such as Flex-algo, CSPF etc to make use of the Metric. The intention of the draft is that for a particular computation same metric-type is used throughout the network. If that is not clear, I’ll add some text in the draft. Using a combination of different metrics for a single computation would need significant change to SPF algorithm and it is not in the scope of the draft "Flexible Algorithms: Bandwidth, Delay, Metrics and Constraints". Hope that clarifies.

Be cautious of content] Hi Shraddha, The two methods of automatic generation of BW-metric introduced in the draft are also likely to be the method of manual configuration of BW-metric by operators. Operators can certainly manually configure any BW-metric he wants to configure. However, the manually configured BW-metric cannot deviate from the actual bandwidth capacity of the link, otherwise it could be any other names such as BX-metric. For manual assignment, the problem may still exist We can find an example that the accumulated bandwidth-metric on the path may offset the manually increased bandwidth-metric of links on the path. Combination of bandwidth attribute of link and other metric that is cumulative may be another co-exist way to completely address this issue.

Physically adding more fiber/capacity is not a feasible solution.

Be cautious of content] Hi Shraddha, Thanks for your rely. So it seems that the scheme may lead to the selection of links with less bandwidth. To address this point, the method as you described to assign more bandwidth to high bandwidth links seems not always possible, e.g, adding more fiber ? Can this point can be addressed by combination of bandwidth attribute of link and other metric that is cumulative ? IMO, bandwidth is not cumulative.

Lets say operator wants to choose S->X1->X2-àX10->D path then operator can manually assign higher bandwidth Metric on S->D link which will ensure S->D path is not the least cost path.

Be cautious of content] Sorry for spelling mistakens in the previous email. updated text: Hi WG, I have a little doubt about the scheme described in this document. See the following example: S ---- X1 ----- X2 ---- ... ... ----- X10 ----- D \----------------------------------------------/ Suppose the links in S---X1---X2...---D have the same bandwidth 10G, and the link S-D has bandwidth 1G. Suppose that we select "reference bandwidth = 100G", then, each link in S---X1---X2...---D will have the same bandwidth-metric 10 (i.e., 100/10) link S-D will have a bandwidth-metric 100 (i.e., 100/1) So flex-algo path from S to D based on bandwidth-metric will be S-D, not S---X1---X2...---D, because the later has a large cumulative bandwitdh-metric (i.e., 11*10). But our expect path should not be S-D, but S---X1---X2...---D, as it has large bandwidth. Do I misunderstand anything ?
