Subject: [NSIS] scaling problem by trigger messages ...

Hi,

The RFC states that: " On the other hand, in many of the new applications for which a
   signaling protocol is required, the user session duration can be
   relatively short.  The dynamics of adding/dropping user sessions
   could introduce a large number of "triggered" messages in the
   network.  This can clearly introduce a substantial amount of
   processing overhead to the routers.  This is one area where a new
   signaling protocol may be needed to reduce the processing complexity
   in the resource reservation process."

Can anybody please elaborate the situation where there is overheads because of trigger messages and not by the refresh message. Apart from processing overheads, the trigger messages also exhibit signaling overheads. But i hardly seen any documents addressing the issues by trigger messages only and not by the refresh messages. How does NSIS address the issue of overheads due to trigger messages.

Regards,

=Malik
