Hi, Just repeating my comment at the mike: The draft does not explain how packet loss on a link is measured.
If this measurement is based on real traffic, excluding the link from the topology for certain flexible algorithms may result in the packet loss going down and the link becoming eligible for traffic again. For this scheme to work, link loss measurement should be done in a way that does not depend on the amount of customer traffic crossing the link. I also think that, even with such a scheme, some kind of hysteresis mechanism is required to prevent link being frequently excluded and admitted back if the packet loss rate fluctuates around the threshold level, My 2c, Sasha Disclaimer This e-mail together with any attachments may contain information of Ribbon Communications Inc. and its Affiliates that is confidential and/or proprietary for the sole use of the intended recipient.
