Aggregated RSVP suggests the use of a single RSVP reservation to establish an ingress router-to-egress router, "fat pipe" for carrying multiple classic RSVP (rfc2205) flows. I suppose an implementation of aggregated RSVP could be to use RSVP-TE (where TE stands for traffic engineering) to setup an MPLS LSP across the network. Of course this MPLS LSP must be big enough to hold all e2e RSVP flows and should not be expanded (or contracted) each time an RSVP flows is setup (or torn down). See: http://ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-issll-rsvp-aggr-02.txt for more info. >So, the host-to-host session >will be forwarded. (If remember correctly the type of a host-to-host RSVP >session is different from that of an 'MPLS' RSVP session.) Correct. Classic RSVP is described in: ftp://ftp.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2205.txt RSVP for MPLS Traffic Engineering (RSVP-TE) is described in: http://ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-mpls-rsvp-lsp-tunnel-06.txt Thanks ... >Does this help, or did I make things worse? > >cheers, > Eduard > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Guy Davies [mailto:Guy.Davies@telindusk.net] > > Sent: woensdag 2 augustus 2000 16:33 > > To: 'Ted44tedT@netscape.net'; prasanna@csa.iisc.ernet.in > > Cc: mpls@UU.NET > > Subject: RE: your mail > > > > > > Also, how does A signal to LER1 if LER1 isn't listening to > > RSVP on it's > > non-MPLS interfaces? > > > > Regards, > > > > Guy > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: Ted44tedT@netscape.net [mailto:Ted44tedT@netscape.net] > > > Sent: Wednesday, August 02, 2000 4:19 PM > > > To: prasanna@csa.iisc.ernet.in > > > Cc: mpls@UU.NET > > > Subject: Re: your mail > > > > > > > > > > > > Hi, Gaitonde > > > > > > How does the node can signal their requirement for setting up > > > a RSVP LSP to the LER if it is none-RSVP nodes? > > > > > > > > > Regards, > > > Ted > > > > > > > > > Gaitonde Anandprasanna <prasanna@csa.iisc.ernet.in> wrote: > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > Well i think even if there are applications running on > > > hosts A and B , > > > > though the RSVP deamon is not running on theses machines. these > > > > applications can signal their requirement for setting up a > > > RSVP LSP to the > > > > RSVP process running on the LER and thus can use that LSP. > > > > But in case the applications are unable to do the above > > > then the data > > > > flow from tha application will be considered as any other > > > data which has > > > > not requested for the RSVP LSP. and will recieve normal service. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > _____________________________ > > > > > > _ |ANANDPRASANNA GAITONDE | _ > > > > / )|COMP.
