Benchmarking Terminology for Resource Reservation
Capable Routers

2
Editorial changes

• Change of title was routers supporting
  resource reservation, became resource
  reservation capable routers
• Lots of re-phrasings throughout
• Some clarifications added (e.g. about the issues
  with multiple idempotent signaling messages
  arriving in a burst)

3
Important changes

• Router load factors clarified (so its clear
  they are just the observable and controllable
  levers we can use to stress the router)
• Traffic load factors now have a composite unit
  of pps bytes to better reflect that
  packets-per-second is just as important as raw
  Mbps
• Signaling message loss redefined as signaling
  message deficit

4
Important changes 2

• New section 3.5 Router Load Conditions and
  Scalability Limit
• Defines Loss-Free Load Condition, Lossy
  Condition
• Raises issue of in reasonable time
• Much clearer, more verbose and hopefully more
  intuitive definition of Scalability Limit
