IP/MPLS Connectivity Provisioning Profile
draft-boucadair-connectivity-provisioning-profile-01
Abstract
This document describes the Connectivity Provisioning Profile (CPP)
and proposes a CPP Template to capture IP connectivity requirements
to be met in the context of delivery of services (e.g. Voice over IP
or IP TV) which are to be plugged upon an IP/MPLS infrastructure.
The CPP defines the set of IP transfer parameters to be supported by
the underlying IP/MPLS transport network together with a reachability
scope and bandwidth/capacity needs. Appropriate performance metrics
such as one-way delay, one-way delay variation are used to
characterize an IP transfer service. Both global and restricted
reachability scopes can be captured in the CPP.
