  3. Two Key Network-Layer Functions • forwarding: move packets from router’s input to appropriate router output • routing: determine route taken by packets from source to dest. • routing algorithms analogy: • routing: process of planning trip from source to dest • forwarding: process of getting through single interchange Network Layer

  10. Host, router network layer functions: • ICMP protocol • error reporting • router “signaling” • IP protocol • addressing conventions • datagram format • packet handling conventions • Routing protocols • path selection • RIP, OSPF, BGP forwarding table The Internet Network layer Transport layer: TCP, UDP Network layer Link layer physical layer Network Layer

  11. IP protocol version number 32 bits total datagram length (bytes) header length (bytes) type of service head. len ver length for fragmentation/ reassembly fragment offset “type” of data flgs 16-bit identifier max number remaining hops (decremented at each router) upper layer time to live header checksum 32 bit source IP address 32 bit destination IP address upper layer protocol to deliver payload to E.g. timestamp, record route taken, specify list of routers to visit. Options (if any) data (variable length, typically a TCP or UDP segment) IP datagram format how much overhead with TCP? • 20 bytes of TCP • 20 bytes of IP • = 40 bytes + app layer overhead Network Layer

  13. IP addresses: how to get one? Q: How does network get subnet part of IP addr? A: gets allocated portion of its provider ISP’s address space ISP's block 11001000 00010111 00010000 00000000 200.23.16.0/20 Organization 0 11001000 00010111 00010000 00000000 200.23.16.0/23 Organization 1 11001000 00010111 00010010 00000000 200.23.18.0/23 Organization 2 11001000 00010111 00010100 00000000 200.23.20.0/23 ... ….. …. ….

  15. IPv6 • Initial motivation:32-bit address space soon to be completely allocated. • Additional motivation: • header format helps speed processing/forwarding • header changes to facilitate QoS • Better support of mobility • Native support of multicast IPv6 datagram format: • fixed-length 40 byte header • no fragmentation allowed Network Layer

  16. IPv6 Header (Cont) Priority: identify priority among datagrams in flow Flow Label: identify datagrams in same “flow.” (concept of“flow” not well defined). Next header: identify upper layer protocol for data Network Layer

  17. Transition From IPv4 To IPv6 • Not all routers can be upgraded simultaneous • no “flag days” • How will the network operate with mixed IPv4 and IPv6 routers? • Tunneling: IPv6 carried as payload in IPv4 datagram among IPv4 routers Network Layer

  21. 5 3 5 2 2 1 3 1 2 1 x z w y u v Graph abstraction Graph: G = (N,E) N = set of routers = { u, v, w, x, y, z } E = set of links ={ (u,v), (u,x), (v,x), (v,w), (x,w), (x,y), (w,y), (w,z), (y,z) } Remark: Graph abstraction is useful in other network contexts Example: P2P, where N is set of peers and E is set of TCP connections Network Layer

  22. 5 3 5 2 2 1 3 1 2 1 x z w y u v Graph abstraction: costs • c(x,x’) = cost of link (x,x’) • - e.g., c(w,z) = 5 • cost could always be 1, or • inversely related to bandwidth, • or inversely related to • congestion Cost of path (x1, x2, x3,…, xp) = c(x1,x2) + c(x2,x3) + … + c(xp-1,xp) Question: What’s the least-cost path between u and z ? Routing algorithm: algorithm that finds least-cost path Network Layer

  23. Global or decentralized information? Global: all routers have complete topology, link cost info “link state” algorithms Decentralized: router knows physically-connected neighbors, link costs to neighbors iterative process of computation, exchange of info with neighbors “distance vector” algorithms Static or dynamic? Static: routes change slowly over time Dynamic: routes change more quickly periodic update in response to link cost changes Routing Algorithm classification Network Layer

  24. Dijkstra’s algorithm net topology, link costs known to all nodes accomplished via “link state broadcast” all nodes have same info computes least cost paths from one node (‘source”) to all other nodes gives forwarding table for that node iterative: after k iterations, know least cost path to k dest.’s Notation: c(x,y): link cost from node x to y; = ∞ if not direct neighbors D(v): current value of cost of path from source to dest. v p(v): predecessor node along path from source to v N': set of nodes whose least cost path definitively known A Link-State Routing Algorithm Network Layer

  25. Dijsktra’s Algorithm 1 Initialization: 2 N' = {u} 3 for all nodes v 4 if v adjacent to u 5 then D(v) = c(u,v) 6 else D(v) = ∞ 7 8 Loop 9 find w not in N' such that D(w) is a minimum 10 add w to N' 11 update D(v) for all v adjacent to w and not in N' : 12 D(v) = min( D(v), D(w) + c(w,v) ) 13 /* new cost to v is either old cost to v or known 14 shortest path cost to w plus cost from w to v */ 15 until all nodes in N' Network Layer

  26. 5 3 5 2 2 1 3 1 2 1 x z w u y v Dijkstra’s algorithm: example D(v),p(v) 2,u 2,u 2,u D(x),p(x) 1,u D(w),p(w) 5,u 4,x 3,y 3,y D(y),p(y) ∞ 2,x Step 0 1 2 3 4 5 N' u ux uxy uxyv uxyvw uxyvwz D(z),p(z) ∞ ∞ 4,y 4,y 4,y Network Layer

  27. Algorithm complexity: n nodes each iteration: need to check all nodes, w, not in N n(n+1)/2 comparisons: O(n2) more efficient implementations possible: O(nlogn) Oscillations possible: e.g., link cost = amount of carried traffic A A A A D D D D B B B B C C C C 1 1+e 2+e 0 2+e 0 2+e 0 0 0 1 1+e 0 0 1 1+e e 0 0 0 e 1 1+e 0 1 1 e … recompute … recompute routing … recompute initially Dijkstra’s algorithm, discussion Network Layer

  28. Distance Vector Algorithm Bellman-Ford Equation (dynamic programming) Define dx(y) := cost of least-cost path from x to y Then dx(y) = min {c(x,v) + dv(y) } where min is taken over all neighbors v of x v Network Layer

  29. 5 3 5 2 2 1 3 1 2 1 x z w u y v Bellman-Ford example Clearly, dv(z) = 5, dx(z) = 3, dw(z) = 3 B-F equation says: du(z) = min { c(u,v) + dv(z), c(u,x) + dx(z), c(u,w) + dw(z) } = min {2 + 5, 1 + 3, 5 + 3} = 4 Node that achieves minimum is next hop in shortest path ➜ forwarding table Network Layer

  30. Iterative, asynchronous: each local iteration caused by: local link cost change DV update message from neighbor Distributed: each node notifies neighbors only when its DV changes neighbors then notify their neighbors if necessary wait for (change in local link cost or msg from neighbor) recompute estimates if DV to any dest has changed, notify neighbors Distance Vector Algorithm (5) Each node: Network Layer

  32. 60 4 1 50 x z y Distance Vector: link cost changes Link cost changes: • good news travels fast • bad news travels slow - “count to infinity” problem! • 44 iterations before algorithm stabilizes: see text Poisoned reverse: • If Z routes through Y to get to X : • Z tells Y its (Z’s) distance to X is infinite (so Y won’t route to X via Z) • will this completely solve count to infinity problem? Network Layer

  33. Message complexity LS: with n nodes, E links, O(nE) msgs sent DV: exchange between neighbors only convergence time varies Speed of Convergence LS: O(n2) algorithm requires O(nE) msgs may have oscillations DV: convergence time varies may be routing loops count-to-infinity problem Robustness: what happens if router malfunctions? LS: node can advertise incorrect link cost each node computes only its own table DV: DV node can advertise incorrect path cost each node’s table used by others error propagate thru network Comparison of LS and DV algorithms Network Layer

  34. scale: with 200 million destinations: can’t store all dest’s in routing tables! routing table exchange would swamp links! administrative autonomy internet = network of networks each network admin may want to control routing in its own network Hierarchical Routing Our routing study thus far - idealization • all routers identical • network “flat” … not true in practice Network Layer

  35. aggregate routers into regions, “autonomous systems” (AS) routers in same AS run same routing protocol “intra-AS” routing protocol routers in different AS can run different intra-AS routing protocol Gateway router Direct link to router in another AS Hierarchical Routing Network Layer

  36. forwarding table configured by both intra- and inter-AS routing algorithm intra-AS sets entries for internal dests inter-AS & Intra-As sets entries for external dests 3a 3b 2a AS3 AS2 1a 2c AS1 2b 3c 1b 1d 1c Inter-AS Routing algorithm Intra-AS Routing algorithm Forwarding table Interconnected ASes Network Layer

  37. 3a 3b 2a AS3 AS2 1a AS1 2c 2b 3c 1b 1d 1c Example: Choosing among multiple ASes • now suppose AS1 learns from inter-AS protocol that subnet x is reachable from AS3 and from AS2. • to configure forwarding table, router 1d must determine towards which gateway it should forward packets for dest x. • this is also job of inter-AS routing protocol! … … x Network Layer

  38. Determine from forwarding table the interface I that leads to least-cost gateway. Enter (x,I) in forwarding table Use routing info from intra-AS protocol to determine costs of least-cost paths to each of the gateways Learn from inter-AS protocol that subnet x is reachable via multiple gateways Hot potato routing: Choose the gateway that has the smallest least cost Example: Choosing among multiple ASes • now suppose AS1 learns from inter-AS protocol that subnet x is reachable from AS3 and from AS2. • to configure forwarding table, router 1d must determine towards which gateway it should forward packets for dest x. • this is also job of inter-AS routing protocol! • hot potato routing: send packet towards closest of two routers. Network Layer

  39. Intra-AS Routing • also known as Interior Gateway Protocols (IGP) • most common Intra-AS routing protocols: • RIP: Routing Information Protocol • OSPF: Open Shortest Path First • IGRP: Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (Cisco proprietary) Network Layer

  40. u v destinationhops u 1 v 2 w 2 x 3 y 3 z 2 w x z y C A D B RIP ( Routing Information Protocol) • distance vector algorithm • included in BSD-UNIX Distribution in 1982 • distance metric: # of hops (max = 15 hops) From router A to subsets: Network Layer

  41. RIP advertisements • distance vectors: exchanged among neighbors every 30 sec via Response Message (also called advertisement) • ech advertisement: list of up to 25 destination nets within AS Network Layer

  42. RIP: Link Failure and Recovery If no advertisement heard after 180 sec --> neighbor/link declared dead • routes via neighbor invalidated • new advertisements sent to neighbors • neighbors in turn send out new advertisements (if tables changed) • link failure info quickly (?) propagates to entire net • poison reverse used to prevent ping-pong loops (infinite distance = 16 hops) Network Layer

  43. OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) • “open”: publicly available • uses Link State algorithm • LS packet dissemination • topology map at each node • route computation using Dijkstra’s algorithm • OSPF advertisement carries one entry per neighbor router • advertisements disseminated to entire AS (via flooding) • carried in OSPF messages directly over IP (rather than TCP or UDP Network Layer

  44. OSPF “advanced” features (not in RIP) • security: all OSPF messages authenticated (to prevent malicious intrusion) • multiple same-cost paths allowed (only one path in RIP) • For each link, multiple cost metrics for different TOS (e.g., satellite link cost set “low” for best effort; high for real time) • integrated uni- and multicast support: • Multicast OSPF (MOSPF) uses same topology data base as OSPF • hierarchical OSPF in large domains. Network Layer

  45. Internet inter-AS routing: BGP • BGP (Border Gateway Protocol):the de facto standard • BGP provides each AS a means to: • Obtain subnet reachability information from neighboring ASs. • Propagate reachability information to all AS-internal routers. • Determine “good” routes to subnets based on reachability information and policy. • allows subnet to advertise its existence to rest of Internet: “I am here” Network Layer

  46. 2c 2b 3c 1b 1d 1c BGP basics • pairs of routers (BGP peers) exchange routing info over semi-permanent TCP connections: BGP sessions • BGP sessions need not correspond to physical links. • when AS2 advertises prefix to AS1: • AS2 promises it will forward any addresses datagrams towards that prefix. • AS2 can aggregate prefixes in its advertisement eBGP session iBGP session 3a 3b 2a AS3 AS2 1a AS1 Network Layer

  47. 2c 2b 3c 1b 1d 1c Distributing reachability info • using eBGP session between 3a and 1c, AS3 sends prefix reachability info to AS1. • 1c can then use iBGP do distribute new prefix info to all routers in AS1 • 1b can then re-advertise new reachability info to AS2 over 1b-to-2a eBGP session • when router learns of new prefix, creates entry for prefix in its forwarding table. eBGP session iBGP session 3a 3b 2a AS3 AS2 1a AS1 Network Layer

  48. Path attributes & BGP routes • advertised prefix includes BGP attributes. • prefix + attributes = “route” • two important attributes: • AS-PATH: contains ASs through which prefix advertisement has passed: e.g, AS 67, AS 17 • NEXT-HOP: indicates specific internal-AS router to next-hop AS. (may be multiple links from current AS to next-hop-AS) • when gateway router receives route advertisement, uses import policy to accept/decline. Network Layer

  49. Why different Intra- and Inter-AS routing ? Policy: • Inter-AS: admin wants control over how its traffic routed, who routes through its net. • Intra-AS: single admin, so no policy decisions needed Scale: • hierarchical routing saves table size, reduced update traffic Performance: • Intra-AS: can focus on performance • Inter-AS: policy may dominate over performance Network Layer

  50. NAT: Network Address Translation rest of Internet local network (e.g., home network) 10.0.0/24 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.4 10.0.0.2 138.76.29.7 10.0.0.3 Datagrams with source or destination in this network have 10.0.0/24 address for source, destination (as usual) All datagrams leaving local network have same single source NAT IP address: 138.76.29.7, different source port numbers Network Layer
