  1. End-to-end resource management in DiffServ Networks • DiffServ focuses on singal domain • Users want end-to-end services • No consensus at this time • Two proposals: • Integrated Services over Differentiated Services • Bandwidth Broker

  2. Integrated Services over Differentiated Services • Apply integrated services model end to end across a network with one or more DiffServ domains. • DiffServ networks are treated as a link layer medium • Integrated Service requests are mapped to diffserv capability • Services to PHB • Two tier resource allocation • DiffServ distributes aggregated resources at core • IntServ allocates the resources to indivudual users • Example: Figure 3.8 • Do we have end-to-end QoS guarantees in this model?

  3. Bandwidth Broker (BB) • Resource allocation between different backbone service providers, as well as support QoS on local LAN. • Each network is associated with one or model BB, which keep track on local network usage • Admission control, policy control, reservation aggregation • BB needs the knowledge of routing • Example, Figure 3.9 • Per flow end-to-end QoS guarantee?

  4. Multiprotocol Label Switching • Virtual circuit at IP level • A short, fixed length label is used for forwarding. • Similar too other circuit switched technology: ATM, Frame Relay, WDM • Convergence of datagram and virtual circuit. • How virtual circuit/datagram works? • Fundamental trade-off: complexity at routing and signaling.

  5. Motivation: IP over ATM integration. • Without MPLS: • Overlay model (classical IP over ATM) • ATM is treated like another subnet technology. • When ATM is treated as a subnet, it is different from both point-to-point or shared media network: • multiple neighbors, but no broadcast capability (ARP) • ATM may contain multiple logical IP subnets (LIS) • ATM ARP: need to emulate ARP. • NextHop Resolution Protocol (NHRP) • Problems: • Have scaling problems. Need VC to connect hosts in a logical subnet. O(N^2) connections and O(N) neighbors. • Going through IP layer in an ATM cloud is not efficient. • Lose QoS capability

  6. Motivation: IP over ATM integration. • With MPLS: • IP routing and signaling protocols take over the control path. • ATM switches are used only to data transmission. • ATM switches are now in the IP routing domain. • NHRP and on demand SVCs are no longer needed • MPLS matches ATM’s capability • Labels are SVC circuit IDs • Switching is done by ATM switches • QoS can be preserved in a LSP.

  7. Some advantages for MPLS: • Simpler packet classification and table lookup • Trade off between simple forwarding and complexity in signaling. • Protocol independent forwarding • Even IP has many protocols. (CIDR, v4, v6, etc) • Finer forwarding granularity • Can treat different customers differently. • Traffic Engineering • MPLS can setup explicit route between two nodes. • key application

  8. IP packet forwarding (Figure 4.2): • Control path: making routing decisions. • unicast routing protocols and multicast routing protocols • Data path: move packet from input ports to output ports. • unicast forwarding table, unicast forwarding engine, multicast forwarding table, multicast forwarding engine • Forwarding is done by longest match between dst address and entries in the forwarding table.

  9. MPLS packet forwarding (Figure 4.4): • Control path: making routing decisions. • unicast routing protocols and multicast routing protocols • Other control protocols (ATM, FR) • Data path: move packet from input ports to output ports. • Label-switching table • Label-based forwarding engine

  10. IP centric control: • IP is here to stay. • IP control protocols are more mature and scalable than other alternative protocols. • IP control protocols for everything (ATM, FR, optical WDM) • A unified control plane integrated IP with different link layer technologies and simplify the management.
