Minutes of the Source Demand Routing Protocol BOF (SDRP)

At the SDRP BOf we started out by introducing the Charter and then spent
most of the rest of the time discussing tasks and priorities.

Charter

The SDRP Working Group is chartered to specify, standardize and promote
the use of SDRP (Source Demand Routing Protocol) as an interdomain
routing protocol capability in conjunction with IDRP and BGP interdomain
routing protocols.  The purpose of SDRP (pronounced ``esdrip'', to go
with ``eyedrip'', which is how IDRP is pronounced) is to support
source-initiated selection of interdomain routes, to complement the
intermediate node selection provided by BGP/IDRP.

Tasks and Issues


   o Packet forwarding and control message format and protocol for IP. A
     draft specification is currently an Internet-Draft.  It is under
     revision and the authors eagerly await more comments on the current
     or future drafts.

   o Configuration and Usage.  This is the highest priority after the
     draft specification in order to demonstrate how SDRP can be used to
     achieve concrete objectives.  Work should begin on this document
     immediately.

   o Internal SDRP. Several attendees commented that they would like to
     have SDRP functionality within domains and for that reason we added
     an item, intra-domain, or ``Internal SDRP'' (ISDRP) to the list.
   o Extensions to BGP and IDRP. As mentioned in the Internet-Draft
     there are a few extensions to BGP/IDRP needed to support SDRP.
     These must be detailed and documented.

   o MIBs.  As needed for any protocol.

   o Deployment.  We will develop both an experimentation and deployment
     plan.

   o Information Distribution.  The initial versions of SDRP will use
     only information from IDRP/BGP and configured information as the
     basis for constructing source routes.  We will develop mechanisms
     for distribution/acquisition of information to allow SDRP to
     construct a richer set of routes.

                                   1





We also outlined a proposed timeline for Documents and Prototypes:
