Chapter 4IP Routing Professor Rick Han University of Colorado at Boulder rhan@cs.colorado.edu
Announcements • Reminder: Programming assignment #1 is due Feb. 19 • Part of Homework #2 available on Web site, due Feb. 26 • Last week’s lecture are now on Web site • Next, IP routing, … Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Recap of Previous Lecture • Routing to connect remote LANs • Encapsulation • Internet Protocol (IPv4) • Connects Networks of Networks • “Best-Effort” Service • IP Packet Header – 20 bytes • TTL • IP Addressing – 32 bit, heirarchy, 128.72.191.4 • IP Fragmentation and Reassembly • Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Eth Hdr Eth. Header has dest. MAC IP ARP query ARP response Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) • Given a known IP address, ARP returns the desired Ethernet MAC address • If sending to a host on the same Ethernet, • First, check cache if address already present • If not, send an Ethernet’s broadcast query (all 1’s in 48-bit address) with “target IP” address • Target host responds with its IP address • ARP updates its cache Destination Node Requesting Node Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
ARP (2) • What if destination host is on a remote LAN? • No local host will respond to broadcast ARP query • Solution: • IP end host sends to IP network, which routes packet to destination IP host • ARP is performed separately on LAN 1 and LAN 2 IP Router LAN1 LAN2 Requesting Node Destination Node Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
ARP (3) • On LAN 1: • IP routers broadcast ICMP “router advertisements” on local LAN or impatient end host broadcasts “solicitations” • When IP end host wants to send outside of LAN, it does ARP request to find MAC address of router’s IP interface address to LAN, if not already cached • Sends a packet containing <src IP, dest. IP> encapsulated by Eth. Header containing dest. MAC address of IP router IP Router LAN1 LAN2 Requesting Node Destination Node Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
ARP (4) • On LAN 2: • IP packet with <src IP, dest IP> arrives at IP router on LAN 2 • IP router does an ARP request to find MAC address of dest IP end host, if not already cached • Sends a packet containing <src IP, dest. IP> encapsulated by Eth. Header containing dest. MAC address of dest IP end host • Proxy ARP when only one router between two LANs IP Router LAN1 LAN2 Requesting Node Destination Node Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Forwarding Datagrams Routing Table at Router B Host 4 Router C Router X Router B Router Y Host 1 Router E Router D Host 2 Host 3 Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Forwarding Datagrams (2) Routing Table at Router E Host 4 Router C Router X Router B Router Y Host 1 Router E Router D Host 2 Host 3 Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Forwarding Datagrams (3) Routing Table at Router E • Only need to know the destination address to route the datagram to output port. Compare to: • VC routing tables had 4 columns: input VC, input port, output VC, output port • Ethernet Bridge tables store the source address and source port/LAN, but forwards using destination address Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Forwarding Datagrams (4) Routing Table at Router E • Each datagram travels its own independent path: There is no connection unlike VCs • “Connectionless” datagram networks • “Connection-oriented” virtual circuits Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Forwarding Datagrams (5) Routing Table at Router E • Each routing table has to contain a complete list of all of the hosts on the net and how to get to them (next hop output port) • Implications on scalability • Compare to VC’s, where each switch only needed to keep in its table the virtual circuits that ran through the switch Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Internet Routing • “Routing” helps to fill in the IP forwarding tables • IP routing employs a distributed algorithm to calculated the shortest path through a graph • Many challenges to make distributed algorithms work well Homogeneous IP routing fabric Router C Router X Router B Router Y Host 1 Router E Router D Host 2 Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Internet Routing (2) • Routing algorithms view the network as a graph • Problem: find lowest cost path between two nodes. What info is required for solution? • Need complete topology info • Need link costs • Two types of distributed algorithms: • Distance vector (RIP) • Link state (OSPF) Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Distance Vector (RIP) • Employed in the early Arpanet • RIP = Routing Information Protocol • A specific implementation of distance-vector routing • Distributed next hop computation • Unit of information exchange • Vector of distances to destinations • Distributed Bellman-Ford Algorithm Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Distance Vector (2) • Start Conditions: • Each router starts with a vector of distances to all directly attached networks • Send step: • Each router advertises its current vector to all neighboring routers • Receive step: • Upon receiving vectors from each of its neighbors, router computes its own distance to each neighbor • Then, for every network X, router finds that neighbor who is closer to X than any other neighbor • Router updates its cost to X • After doing this for all X, router goes to send step Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Distance Vector (3) • Example courtesy of Prof. Srini Seshan at CMU 1 Distance to Node B C Info at Node A B C D E 7 0 7 ~ ~ 1 A 8 2 B A 7 0 1 ~ 8 C ~ 1 0 2 ~ 1 2 D ~ ~ 2 0 2 E D E 1 8 ~ 2 0 Global minimum distance table, each row is a condensed forwarding table for node i Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder

How are These Loops Caused? • Observation 1: • B’s metric increases • Observation 2: • C picks B as next hop to A • But, the implicit path from C to A includes itself (C ) ! Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Solution 1: Holddowns • If metric increases, delay propagating information • In our example, B delays advertising route • C eventually thinks B’s route is gone, picks its own route • B then selects C as next hop • Adversely affects convergence from failures Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Other “Solutions” • Split horizon • C does not advertise route to B when it sends its distance vector • Poisoned reverse • C advertises route to B with infinite distance in its distance vector • Works for two node loops • Does not work for loops with more nodes Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Avoiding the Counting to Infinity Effect • Select loop-free paths • One way of doing this: • Each route advertisement carries entire path • If a router sees itself in path, it rejects the route • BGP does it this way • Space proportional to diameter Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Loop Freedom at Every Instant? • Does bouncing effect avoid loops? • No! Transient loops are still possible • Why? Because implicit path information may be stale • See this in BGP convergence • Only way to fix this • Ensure that you have up-to-date information by explicitly querying Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Distance Vector in Practice • RIP and RIP2 • Uses split-horizon/poison reverse • BGP • Propagates entire path • Path also used for effecting policies Prof. Rick Han, University of Colorado at Boulder
Example Where Split Horizon Fails 1 • When link breaks, C marks D as unreachable and reports that to A and B • Suppose A learns it first • A now thinks best path to D is through B • A reports D unreachable to B and a route of cost=3 to C • C thinks D is reachable through A at cost 4 and reports that to B • B reports a cost 5 to A who reports new cost to C • etc...
