Abstract:
This document provides the entry point to the set of documentation about
the Congestion Exposure (ConEx) protocol. It explains the motivation for including a ConEx marking at
the IP layer: to expose information about congestion to network nodes. Although such information may
have a number of uses, this document focuses on how the information communicated by
the ConEx marking can serve as the basis for significantly more efficient and
effective traffic management than what exists on the Internet today. This document is not
an Internet Standards Track specification; it is published for informational
purposes.
