Terminology for Benchmarking Link-State IGP Data-Plane Route Convergence
S. Poretsky, B. Imhoff, Kristel F. L. Michielsen · 2011
This document describes the terminology for benchmarking link-state Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) route convergence.The terminology is to be used for benchmarking IGP convergence time through externally observable (black-box) data-plane measurements.The terminology can be applied to any link-state IGP, such as IS-IS and OSPF.
