Ah, but there are times when suboptimal paths have spare capacity but you are dropping packets on the optimal path(s) due to congestion. An "unselfish" routing model would allow you to use _all_ available capacity in the network before packets get dropped.
Make optimal path have more capacity. No need for FastPath(tm) or any other market hype. Case closed.
This isn't just theory; the ISPs using an "unselfish routing" schemes today consider that a competitive advantage and thus don't publish details.
Or maybe it is because "My outbound is your inbound" "I always can control my outbound" "Therefore, you cannot control your inbound" "Therefore, your claims of 'traffic management' is marketing hype" Alex
