János Szigeti János Tapolcai Tibor Cinkler Routing Based on Outdated Information in MultiDomain MultiLayer Networks High-Speed Networks Laboratory Dept. of Telecommunications and Media Informatics Budapest University of Technology and Economics
Outline • Motivations • Standardization • Our approach • Gaps • Tests & Results • Conclusion
Motivations • Optical • Multilayer • Fault tolerant • Scalable • Supports standards
Standardization • Institutions: • ITU-T • IETF • OIF • ATM Forum • Covered Issues • Network planes (ASON/ASTN) • Source routing (GMPLS) • Interfaces (E-NNI)
ASON Control Plane GMPLS data encapsulation levels: • fibre • wavelength • timeslot (grooming) • packet
GMPLS Layers Data encapsulation levels: Fibre, Wavelength,Timeslot (grooming), packet
OIF-UNI/E-NNI • Neighbor (topology) discovery • Service discovery • (Abstract) reachability information • (Abstract) signalling for connection Setup / Release
Existing Inter-Domain Routing Approaches • OSPF+BGP4 • IP terminology • Hop-by-hop routing • traffic engineering is difficult when applying protection schemes • PNNI • very scalable solution • loss of important information (overaggregation)
Our Solution • Topology aggregation supports • “Explicit” source routing • Sub-lambda connections • Resilience issues • Call control • Based on OIF specifications • Information • consistent • periodically flooded
Topology discovery and RWA Problems: • Aggregated edges WL to WL (simple if ALL/NONE of the border nodes is WL converter) • Insufficient information about destination domain • Aggregation of other metrics
Tests, Results • Hypotetical topology • Varied attributes: • traffic (Poisson(λ,ν)) • refresh intervals • maximal setup delay • Measured • Blocking ratio for inter-domain setups • Average setup delay
Results Longer refresh periods cause higher blocking ratio Maximal setup delay time does not influence the blocking ratio significantly
Conclusions • Topology aggregation in multilayer networks is not simple • Inter-domain routing based on stalled information: • Trade-off between flooding and accuracy • Information refresh period length has a roughly linear relation to the blocking ratio
