Ultra Low Latency Optical Networks
White Paper Employed techniques include a non-blocking, bufferless topology, single pulse packets incorporating Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) for both routing header and payload data, and ultra-fast electro optical interfaces built from commercially... [18 Jul 2008]
A Dynamic QoS Provisioning Model for Network Mobility
White Paper Packets that are marked according to the traffic classes are then aggregated as a single request in a QoS Object in the packet header which is then sent along with the NEMO binding update message for resource reservation. [17 Jul 2008]
Loose Source Routing as a Mechanism for Traffic Policies
White Paper Internet packet delivery policies have been of concern since the earliest times of the Internet, as witnessed by the presence of the Type of Service (ToS) field in the IPv4 header. Efforts continue today with Differentiated Services (Diff - Serv... [11 Jul 2008]
AntiECN Marking: A Marking Scheme for High Bandwidth Delay Connections
White Paper The feedback is in the form of a single bit in the packet header and is given per packet. This paper describes a simple scheme that uses feedback from underutilized high capacity links to allow a TCP connection to aggressively increase its sending... [11 Jul 2008]
A Bandwidth Determination Method for IPv6-Based Networks
White Paper This paper presents a method to accurately and efficiently determine the network bandwidth in IPv6 networks through the use of a proposed timestamp option for the IPv6 hop-by-hop extension header. Accurate measurement of bottleneck and available... [11 Jul 2008]
MPLS Private Network Technology and Level 3
White Paper In the traditional model, the packet header is analyzed at each hop as the packet travels from router to router. The benefit of label swapping is that the packet header information is analyzed only once. [10 Jul 2008]
Hardware Assisted Packet Filtering Firewall
White Paper Many research works have been done in the past in the area of classifying packets based on one or more packet header fields. A packet filter is a hardware or software mechanism that can be configured to select packets from a traffic stream based on... [10 Jul 2008]
A Load Balancing Algorithm for High Speed Intrusion Detection
White Paper Based on the contents of fields in IP packet header and some simple operations, this algorithm can keep the relativities among packets in a high bandwidth network environment while distributing workload to different processing node. [10 Jul 2008]
Exploring the Trade-Off Between Label Size and Stack Depth in MPLS Routing
White Paper In MPLS, the analysis of the packet (network layer) header is performed just once, and each packet is assigned a stack of labels, which is examined by subsequent routers when making forwarding decisions. [10 Jul 2008]
TCP HACK: TCP Header Checksum Option to Improve Performance over Lossy Links
White Paper We refer to this extension as the HeAder ChecK-sum option (HACK). In recent years, wireless networks have become increasingly common and an increasing number of devices are communicating with each other over lossy links. [03 Jul 2008]
Effect of Packet Size on Loss Rate and Delay in Wireless Links
White Paper Transmitting large packets over wireless networks helps to reduce header overhead, but may have adverse effect on loss rate due to corruptions in a radio link. Packet loss in lower layers, however, is typically hidden from the upper protocol layers... [03 Jul 2008]
Building an IPv6 Linux Router Server
White Paper Some of the IPv6 features include a new header format, a larger address space (128 bits), an efficient and hierarchical addressing and routing infrastructure, the availability of stateless and stateful address security, built-in security, better... [03 Jul 2008]
WebDAV -- Advanced Status Reporting
White Paper This Internet-Draft proposes a new header to allow sophisticated or automated WebDAV clients to request advanced status reporting rather than the single-code approach available today. This draft also proposes a simple XML format for the body of the... [03 Jul 2008]
Frame Relay Fast Packet Switching
White Paper Frame Relay is a simplified form of Packet Switching similar in principle to X.25 in which synchronous frames of data are routed to different destinations depending on header information. The biggest difference between Frame Relay and X.25 is that... [03 Jul 2008]
Fast Packet Classification for Two-Dimensional Conflict-Free Filters
White Paper Unlike traditional routers, which forward packets based on destination address only, routers with packet classification capability can forward packets based on multiple header fields, such as source address, protocol type, or application port... [03 Jul 2008]
