Abstract:
This document describes how conventional hop-by-hop link-state routing protocols
interact with new Traffic Engineering capabilities to create Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) shortcuts. In particular,
this document describes how Dijkstra's Shortest Path First (SPF) algorithm can be adapted so that
link-state IGPs will calculate IP routes to forward traffic over tunnels that are set up
by Traffic Engineering. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
