  1. ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP) Presented by Sundar P Subramani UMBC

  2. Overview • Background • Working of protocol • Messages • Policies • State maintenance • Conclusion

  3. Background • Best effort routing • insufficient for current applications • Point-to-point model routing • Applications demand multipoint-to-multipoint • Solution?

  4. Resource reservation • Reserve resources along path • Two approaches • Sender initiated • Receiver initiated • Latter is better • Heterogeneous requests • Scalable • Stable – except at leaf nodes

  5. Admission control • Network has finite resources • To maintain specified QoS guarantee • Admission control

  6. RSVP • Used to specify QoS by applications • Not a routing protocol • Internet control protocol • Establish and maintain reservations

  7. Working of RSVP • Traffic in RSVP defined in terms of • Session • Filter Spec • Flow Spec

  8. Session • Defined • Destination IP address • Unicast/Multicast • Destination port number

  9. Filter Spec • Several senders in one session • 1 sender -> 1 destination  data flow • A data flow specified by filter spec • Sender IP address • Optional port number

  10. Flow Spec • Routers informed of traffic parameters of • Sender – TSpec (?) • Receivers – RSpec • Above two form the flowspec

  11. RSVP Messages - PATH • Sent periodically by sender towards all destinations • Sets up path from sender to each destination • Contains TSpec • Based on token bucket model • Maximum bandwidth • Token bucket size • Maximum packet size

  12. RSVP Messages - PATH

  13. RSVP Messages - RESV • Receivers request for resources using RESV message • Sent upstream • Set by PATH messages •  if no senders no reservation could be made • Merged as message proceeds upstream

  14. RSVP Messages - RESV • RESV messages propagated upward only if • Reservation at that particular router is less than requested QoS parameters • Helps in conserving resources in a muticast setting

  15. RSVP Messages - RESV

  16. RSVP Messages - Teardown • Two types of tear down • pathtear • Initiated by sender • resvtear • Initiated by receiver

  17. Policies • Two policies determine the reservation request acceptance • Admission control • Does network have enough resources? • Policy control • Does the element have permissions to make reservation?

  18. Policies • If RESV accepted reservation made • Else error message sent to the receiver • Receiver could also request for confirmation in RESV message itself

  19. Soft state • Routers along path would remove reservations based on timeouts • PATH and RESV sent periodically • Keeps the reservation alive • Advantage • Network resource not reserved forever in case of node failure • Disadvantage • Message overhead

  20. RSVP TE • Establish LSP in MPLS networks • MPLS MultiProtocol Label Switching • LSP Label Switched Path • Essentially enables source routing • Once path specified incore routers route packets based on labels • Used in optical networks

  21. Implementation status • Implemented in • MAC OS • Windows 2000, XP • BSD

  22. Conclusion • RSVP helps to conserve network recourses for multicast traffic • Periodic message transmission • Increases network traffic • Suggestion • Implicit signaling mechanism
