TODO list for Edge Aware Inter-domain Routing (EIR)

1. Use-case evaluation

1.1. Edge peering

Description: Two example scenarios can be considered:

a) Two small enterprise networks N1 and N2 which operate in geographically close locations (e.g. on different floors of a building) and have different Internet service providers ISP1 and ISP2, setting up a peering link as a backup. This would enable one to use the other in case one of the upstream providers fail.

b) Time Square / Concert / Stadium events, wherein, an upstream provider may not have the capacity to carry large volumes of traffic, but would benefit by peering and carrying traffic along the edge.

Solution: Needs more thought into formalizing the evaluation scenario

Status: Not evaluated

1.2. Cross-domain multi-homing

Description: Basic example of an end-host connected simultaneously through 2 or more interfaces, trying to download content, with each connection maintained by a different ISP, as shown
