IP Next-Generation Network Requirements for Scalable and Reliable Broadcast IPTV Services
White Paper Cisco has developed a service optimized IP NGN architecture, for service providers that, together with the Cisco CRS-1: Delivers emerging large-scale IP broadcast video services with the availability and reliability that ensures an entertainment... [24 Mar 2008]
Introduction to Multicast Routing
White Paper Shortest Path trees, MSDP, Anycast and the differences between Inter- and Intradomain multicast routing as well as some advice as to when to use particular technologies and sample router configurations. [12 Mar 2008]
SPEED: A Stateless Protocol for Real-Time Communication in Sensor Networks
White Paper The protocol provides three types of real-time communication services, namely, real-time unicast, real-time area-multicast and real-time area-anycast. This paper presents a real-time communication protocol for sensor networks, called SPEED. [25 Aug 2007]
On Base Station Selection for Anycast Flow Routing in Energy-Constrained Wireless Sensor Networks
White Paper This paper investigates base station selection (or anycast) problem in wireless sensor networks. The paper also proposes a polynomial time heuristic for optimal base station selection for anycast via a sequential fixing procedure, under the... [23 Aug 2007]
HEAT: Scalable Routing in Wireless Mesh Networks Using Temperature Fields
White Paper This paper proposes HEAT, an anycast routing protocol for this type of communication that is designed to scale to the network size and to be robust to node mobility. Existing unicast routing protocols like for example AODV are not suited well for... [01 Aug 2007]
Why DDos attack didn't bring down the net
News The distributed denial of service attack on the Domain Name System (DNS) proved the effectiveness of the Anycast load-balancing system, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (Icann) said in a document published last week. [12 Mar 2007]
Observations of IPv6 Traffic on a 6to4 Relay
White Paper FUNET (Finnish University and Research Network) has been operating a public 6to4 relay since November 2001, advertising the anycast prefixes (2002::/16, 192.88.99.0/24) globally. 6to4 is an IPv6 transition mechanism which embeds the IPv4 address in... [14 Mar 2005]
Protocol Design for Anycast Communication in IPv6 Network
White Paper Although anycast communication supports service-oriented addresses many of its current definitions in IPv6 are unclear. Furthermore, since there are no protocol standards or even consensus on routing control, inter-segment anycast communications... [31 Oct 2004]
IPv6 Anycast for Simple and Effective Service-Oriented Communications
White Paper Although anycast communication supports service-oriented addresses, many of its current definitions in IPv6 are unclear. Furthermore, since there are no protocol standards or even a consensus on controlling routing, inter-segment anycast... [29 Oct 2004]
IPV6 on AIX 5L
White Paper IPv6 has a new address type - anycast, which allows a packet to be sent to any one of a group of nodes. This paper describes the IPv6 protocol and describes how IPv6 is configured and managed on the IBM AIX 5L operating system. [16 Oct 2004]
Implementing IPv6 as a Peer-to-Peer Overlay Network
White Paper The paper shows how different slaves can be constructed to tunnel through NATs and firewalls, as well as to improve the robustness of the routing infrastructure and to provide efficient and resilient implementations for features such as multicast... [16 Oct 2004]
Anycast RP
White Paper The scope of this document is to explain the basic concept of MSDP and the theory behind Anycast RP. It also provides an example of how to deploy Anycast RP. This document has the following sections: Multicast Source Discovery Protocol Overview... [24 Feb 2004]
