This document describes how to use network performance data, such as
is advertised via the OSPF and ISIS TE metric extensions (defined in
other RFCs) to perform path selection based on network performance
criteria. 

Working Group Summary

This document moved from to the TEAS WGs as part of the routing WG
changes.  This document has been fairly noncontroversial

implementations.  While there have been no public statements on
