The IP network layer provides route convergence to protect data traffic against planned and unplanned failures in the internet. BWMG has work items to address convergence benchmarking. 2. Technologies that function at sub-IP layers can be enabled to provide protection of IP traffic 3. Sub-IP protection mechanisms include High Availability (HA) stateful failover, Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), Automatic Protection Switching (APS) for SONET/SDH, Fast Reroute for Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS), and others. 4. The metrics for benchmarking the performance of sub-IP protection mechanisms can be measured at the IP layer, so that the results are always measured in reference to IP and independent of the specific protection mechanism being used. Enables different protection mechanisms to be benchmarked and compared Enables different implementations of the same protection mechanism to be benchmarked and compared 5. It is intended that there can exist unique methodology documents for each sub-IP protection mechanism, such as MPLS Fast Reroute. Next Steps 5 • Appears to be significant interest in BMWG to author *and review* documents for Sub-IP Protection Mechanisms Benchmarking work item • Is there interest to make this a BMWG work item?
