Title: Considerations in Benchmarking Routing Protocol Network Convergence
State: Active
Authors: Russ White, Vishwas Manral, Robert Adams
Group: Individual Submissions (none)
Date: 2004-10-08
This document attempts to discuss some of the definitions required to
undertake the specifications of such benchmarks, and also to discuss some
of the possible ways to benchmark a routing protocol performance within a
network, and some of the implications of those benchmarks. The definition
of convergence is discussed first, then polling network devices. Several
tests which are commonly used to measure network convergence are examined.
This draft does not attempt to define what techniques should be used to
benchmark network convergence, but only to provide considerations that
testers shoudl consider when attempting to measure netowrk convergence
using various methods.
