My
understanding of saying PHY agnostic is that we specify the interface in logical
way (request,
indication) with may be one example (likely Ethernet)
PHY as informative annex.

I am
new to the group. I have been reading up the presentations. I have
a simple question.
We
are saying .17 will be layer 1 agnostic. However, (if sonet is the phy
used) sonet is aware of the ring structure - for APS, etc.
Will
the .17 specify how a sonet framer should be defeatured to work with a
RPR MAC?

Sounds great. The definition sounds more clear
too.
The only minor tweak that I would suggest is to
replace the word node with flows or conversations in the end of the
definition which would make it:
Bottleneck-link fairness:
Fairness based on a mechanism that controls the throughput
of each node according to a fair proportion of that link between
source and destination that is shared by the highest number of
nodes.

Dear Khaled
Thank you for your comments. I will try to quantify maximum delay
bounds for different kind of services.
Next try.
I will change the original definition
Bottleneck-link fairness:
Fairness based on a mechanism that coordinates the ring
access of only those nodes that use the same links for their packet
transfers.

Harmen,
This is an excellent piece of work.
I have a couple of questions:
- Do we want to quantify delay jitter
instead of just mentioning variation in delay? I know it's a sore
point in the literature, but maybe we can come up with something.
- Not sure I understand your definition for
Bottleneck-link
fairness
Thanks.
