- Provider traffic engineering capability using BGP community
- Ability to re-announce providers’ BGP table to IRP. Configuring the BGP monitoring Protocol (BMP monitoring station) is recommended
- Flow export (The feature is not supported in the SPAN-only setups)

- Probes prefixes that generate inbound traffic to build a statistical model of the route performance per each inbound rule
- Reprobes prefixes according to the configured inbound reprobing interval (irpinperfd.probing.interval)
- Compares the reprobed results with the statistical model
- In case the poor inbound traffic metrics are obtained – IRP makes an improvement by announcing the customer prefixes with the corresponding TE community
- Once IRP applies an inbound improvement, its relevance is checked on subsequent probing sessions
There are two modes in which the inbound performance improvements can be enabled: #
