Re: [RRG] Which Side to Control Ingress Link Selection?

[Christian Vogt <christian.vogt@nomadiclab.com>]

Thanks, everybody, for sharing your thoughts in this exercise.
The discussion has certainly shed some light on the preferred
approach of the research group in things routing control.  Here
is my conclusion:

Solutions should preferably and by default give control over a
particular resource to those entities who pay for that resource.
In the specific case of ingress link selection, this means that
the receiving edge network should be able to choose.

Solutions may go beyond this and provide a means for entities to
cede (part of) their control.  Continuing the example of ingress
link selection, a receiving edge network may announce a selection
of alternatives from which sending edge networks can choose.
