IP Network Design – a Huge Area • Lot of things to keep track of in next generation networks • Topology / IP addressing • Router requirements • IGP • BGP • Utilization • Blocking • Bandwidth • MPLS
Hierarchical Design Principles:Dual-homing to the core with access redundancy Core Distribution Access Core Layer: Switching speed Distribution Layer: Topology change isolation Controlling the routing table size Traffic aggregation Access Layer: Feed traffic into the network Control access
Strategy for successful IP addressing • Allocate IP addresses carefully. • If you don’t address your network right, you have no hope of scaling to truly large sizes. • Keep two primary goals in mind: • Controlling thesize of the routing table • Controlling the distance topology change information must travel (by controlling the work required when topology changes) • The primary tool for accomplishing these goals is summarization.

Impact of Router Performance on Per-Hop Latency • Route lookups • Policies and classification functions • Ingress and Egress queue management • Switch fabric access and SAR functions • MPLS and other encapsulations • VPN management • Background processes on shared CPU‘s (SNMP, statistics, etc.) Statements in red are typically performed on both core and edge routers Edge routers: VPN management, classifications, support a multitude of customer terminations, and tunnel encapsulations Core routers: Basic packet forwarding as fast as possible
Internet Processor II • Packet Filtering • Blocking • Counting • Logging • Explicit Forwarding • CoS Classification • Granular Policing • Packet Sampling • Deterministic Load Balancing 120.0% 100.0% 80.0% % of Line Rate 60.0% 40.0% 20.0% 0.0% Increasing Number of Packet Filters Juniper CPU Based Router
Edge Routing Solutions • The edge is where services are defined, created and controlled • The edge is where the change in networks will occur • Network edge as the first strategic investment • Services create revenue directly • Core investments are in advance of revenue • Even in slower periods, customers and network applications all depend on and demand new or faster services • Everything on IP
Extended bursts of 1500-byte packets entering the router via an STM-4 connection fill E1 connection leading to immense per-packet latency and possibly packet loss Edge router requirement: Congestion control functions Support of specific traffic classes Support of multiple queues per interface Low-Speed Connections: The Interface Bottleneck
Quality of Service – Access vs. Core • At the edge, the access (subscriber) facing side of the edge router has different QoS requirements than the core facing side • Access: • Great number of IP interfaces (subscribers) • 4 – 8 queues per subscriber (IP interface) that represent the traffic classes • 10s of 000s of queues per port • Core: • Low number of IP interfaces (uplink) • 4 – 8 queues per port that represent the traffic classes • All access traffic (and queues) is aggregated into the corresponding core queues (uplink)
Customer Class-Based Queuing • Each customer is serviced by 4-8 unique hierarchical queues • Strict priority and hierarchical round robin • Supports QoS SLA per customer Hierarchical Weighted Queues C-OC-12/STM-4 F-E1 DS-3 DS1
Juniper Networks Next-Generation IP Edge Router ERX • High Density (low power, small size) to conserve scarce point-of-presence (POP) rack space • Hundreds of physical circuits/shelf • Thousands of logical circuits/shelf • High bandwidth capacity with 100% Wire Speed Performance • Hardware redundancy and other Carrier reliability features provide high availability required to meet SLAs • Supports wire speed QoS crucial to deployment of the business-grade Internet
Port-Based Queuing • Each physical port is serviced by 4-8 queues • All customer traffic terminating on the same physical port is aggregated into a common scheduler • Delivers Class-Based Queuing services • No deterministic subscriber traffic / no QoS SLA C-OC-12/STM-4 Class-Based Queues F-E1 DS-3 DS1
