DS-TE Requirements - input sought on "Overbooking"

[Francois Le Faucheur <flefauch@cisco.com>]

Hi,

The topic of "Overbooking" was discussed during the London TEWG meeting. It 
seems to me like a good idea to try capture the main points on this in the 
DS-TE Requirements document (which currently does not discuss overbooking 
at all).

I believe the following points were made during the London discussion:
	- DS-TE should allow different overbooking ratios to be used for different 
classes
	- DS-TE should allow these overbooking ratios to be different in different 
parts of the network (e.g. higher overbooking ratios on high speed core 
links, lower overbooking ratios on lower speed access links).

Do we agree it is worth adding something on Overbooking in the "DS-TE 
Reqts" draft?

Are the two points above reasonable?

Thanks for your thoughts

Francois
