A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 3532 Title: Requirements for the Dynamic Partitioning of Switching Elements Author(s): T. Anderson, J. Buerkle Status: Informational Date: May 2003 Mailbox: todd.a.anderson@intel.com, joachim.buerkle@nortelnetworks.com Pages: 11 Characters: 25119 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-gsmp-dyn-part-reqs-03.txt URL: ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3532.txt This document identifies a set of requirements for the mechanisms used to dynamically reallocate the resources of a switching element (e.g., an ATM switch) to its partitions. These requirements are particularly critical in the case of an operator creating a switch partition and then leasing control of that partition to a third party.
