  2. 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

  3. 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 special routers in AS run intra-AS routing protocol with all other routers in AS also responsible for routing to destinations outside AS run inter-AS routing protocol with other gateway routers gateway routers Hierarchical Routing Network Layer

  7. Routing in the Internet • The Global Internet consists of Autonomous Systems (AS) interconnected with each other: • Stub AS: small corporation: one connection to other AS’s • Multihomed AS: large corporation (no transit): multiple connections to other AS’s • Transit AS: provider, hooking many AS’s together • AS Lookup: • https://www.ultratools.com/tools/asnInfo • Two-level routing: • Intra-AS: administrator responsible for choice of routing algorithm within network • Inter-AS: unique standard for inter-AS routing: BGP Network Layer

  8. 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

  9. 4. 1 Introduction 4.2 Virtual circuit and datagram networks 4.3 What’s inside a router 4.4 IP: Internet Protocol Datagram format IPv4 addressing ICMP IPv6 4.5 Routing algorithms Link state Distance Vector Hierarchical routing 4.6 Routing in the Internet RIP OSPF BGP 4.7 Broadcast and multicast routing Chapter 4: Network Layer Network Layer

  10. RIP ( Routing Information Protocol) • Distance vector algorithm • Included in BSD-UNIX Distribution in 1982 • Distance metric: # of hops (max = 15 hops) • Can you guess why? • Distance vectors: exchanged among neighbors every 30 sec via Response Message (also called advertisement) • Each advertisement: list of up to 25 destination nets within AS Network Layer

  11. RIP: Example z w x y A D B C Destination Network Next Router Num. of hops to dest. w A 2 y B 2 z B 7 x -- 1 …. …. .... Routing table in D Network Layer

  12. z w x y A D B C RIP: Example Dest Next hops w - - x - - z C 4 …. … ... Advertisement from A to D Destination Network Next Router Num. of hops to dest. w A 2 y B 2 z B A 7 5 x -- 1 …. …. .... Routing table in D Network Layer

  13. 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) • RIP is based on UDP packets Network Layer

  15. OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) • Successor to RIP • Uses Link State algorithm • LS packet dissemination • Route computation using Dijkstra’s algorithm • Advertisements disseminated to entire AS (via flooding) • Carried in OSPF messages directly over IP (no TCP or UDP) • ICMP is directly on IP, too Network Layer

  16. 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) • Hierarchical OSPF in large domains. Network Layer

  18. Inter-AS routing in the Internet: BGP Network Layer

  19. Internet inter-AS routing: BGP • BGP (Border Gateway Protocol):the de facto standard for inter-AS routing • BGP: glues the whole Internet together • Uses TCP (service port: 179) • Path Vector protocol: • similar to Distance Vector protocol • each Border Gateway broadcast to neighbors (peers) entire path (i.e., sequence of AS’s) to destination • BGP routes to networks (ASs), not individual hosts • E.g., Gateway X may send its path to dest. Z: Path (X,Z) = X,Y1,Y2,Y3,…,Z Network Layer

  20. Internet inter-AS routing: BGP Suppose: gateway X send its path to peer gateway W • W may or may not select path offered by X • cost, policy (don’t route via competitors AS), loop prevention reasons • If W selects path advertised by X, then: Path (W,Z) = w, Path (X,Z) • Note: X can control incoming traffic by controlling its route advertisements to peers: • e.g., don’t want to route traffic to Z -> don’t advertise any routes to Z Network Layer

  21. BGP: controlling who routes to you • A,B,C are provider networks • X,W,Y are customer (of provider networks) • X is dual-homed: attached to two networks • X does not want to route from B via X to C • .. so X will not advertise to B a route to C Network Layer

  22. BGP: controlling who routes to you • A advertises to B the path AW • B advertises to X the path BAW • Should B advertise to C the path BAW? • No way! B gets no “revenue” for routing CBAW since neither W nor C are B’s customers • B wants to force C to route to w via A • B wants to route only to/from its customers! Policy !! Network Layer

  23. BGP messages • BGP messages exchanged using TCP. • BGP messages: • OPEN: opens TCP connection to peer and authenticates sender • UPDATE: advertises new path (or withdraws old) • KEEPALIVE keeps connection alive in absence of UPDATES; also ACKs OPEN request • NOTIFICATION: reports errors in previous msg; also used to close connection Network Layer

  24. Why different Intra- and Inter-AS routing ? Policy: • Inter-AS: admin wants control over how its traffic routed, who routes through its net (policy). • 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
