Network Working Group B. Niven-Jenkins, Ed. Internet-Draft Nokia Intended status: Standards Track R. van Brandenburg, Ed. Expires: January 27, 2017 TNO July 26, 2016 Request Routing Redirection interface for CDN Interconnection draft-ietf-cdni-redirection-19 Abstract The Request Routing Interface comprises (1) the asynchronous advertisement of footprint and capabilities by a downstream Content Delivery Network (CDN) that allows an upstream CDN to decide whether to redirect particular user requests to that downstream CDN; and (2) the synchronous operation of an upstream CDN requesting whether a downstream CDN is prepared to accept a user request and of a downstream CDN responding with how to actually redirect the user request. This document describes an interface for the latter part, i.e., the CDNI Request Routing Redirection interface.
