An Investigation of MPLS Traffic Engineering Capabilities Using CR-LDP
White Paper Now with the advent of gigabit routers the issue of connection oriented forwarding and IP routing integration is more focused on the additional advantages that MPLS provides: to manage traffic not necessarily based on shortest path measures, to... [18 Jul 2008]
Malaysia's Leading Healthcare Provider Relies on Allied Telesis' Network Solutions to Drive Customer-Centric Services
White Paper Allied Telesis presented a flexible, cost-effective switching and routing solution that could grow with HSC. HSC's greatest challenge was to find the fastest way to share its resources and experts to ensure they can get back to their patients... [18 Jul 2008]
Providing QoS Support in OSPF Based Best Effort Network
White Paper In an Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) based best effort network, when a packet experiences congestion, the routing subsystem cannot send it through an alternate path. A Load Sensitive Routing algorithm (LSR) has been reported which finds alternate... [17 Jul 2008]
Source Selectable Path Diversity Via Routing Deflections
White Paper This paper presents the design of a routing system in which end-systems set tags to select non-shortest path routes as an alternative to explicit source routes. Unlike explicit source routing, this scheme is inherently scalable and compatible with... [11 Jul 2008]
Interface Split Routing for Finer-Grained Traffic Engineering
White Paper Legacy IP routing restricts the efficacy of traffic engineering solutions. Proposals that alleviate this constraint either completely overhaul legacy IP routing, or introduce complex control and/or forwarding plane components. [11 Jul 2008]
Optimized Routing Adaptation in IP Networks Utilizing OSPF and MPLS
White Paper In this paper routing adaptation methodologies are investigated, which utilize conventional routing protocols such as OSPF in combination with MPLS. The algorithm takes into account the original routing configuration and allows tradeoff... [11 Jul 2008]
Performance Analysis of MPLS TE Queues for QoS Routing
White Paper The idea takes advantage of an intelligent Constrained Shortest Path First (CSPF) routing mechanism for MPLS TE to enable QoS routing. In order to maximize network resources, Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE) is used in... [11 Jul 2008]
Link-State Routing With Hop-by-Hop Forwarding Can Achieve Optimal Traffic Engineering
White Paper Link-state routing with hop-by-hop forwarding is widely used in the Internet today. This paper proposes a new link-state routing protocol, PEFT that splits traffic over multiple paths with an exponential penalty on longer paths. [11 Jul 2008]
Quality of Service Routing in MPLS Networks Using Delay and Bandwidth Constraints
White Paper Because constraint based routing considers more than network topology in computing routes, it may find a longer but lightly loaded path better than the heavily loaded shortest path. Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) has been proposed as a new... [11 Jul 2008]
Traffic Engineering With Traditional IP Routing Protocols
White Paper Traffic engineering involves adapting the routing of traffic to the network conditions, with the joint goals of good user performance and efficient use of network resources. This paper describe an approach to intradomain traffic engineering that... [11 Jul 2008]
Landmark Selection and Greedy Landmark-Descent Routing for Sensor Networks
White Paper This paper study the problem of landmark selection for landmark-based routing in a network of fixed wireless communication nodes. It present a distributed landmark selection algorithm that does not rely on global clock synchronization, and a... [11 Jul 2008]
Highly-Resilient, Energy-Efficient Multipath Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks
White Paper The paper considers constructing two kinds of multipaths to enable energy efficient recovery from failure of the shortest path between source and sink. Previously proposed sensor network data dissemination schemes require periodic low-rate flooding... [11 Jul 2008]
Multicast Routing, Load Balancing, and Wavelength Assignment on Tree of Rings
White Paper Shortest path tree (SPT) and Minimum spanning tree (MST) are the two widely used multicast routing methods. There are two steps to establish a multicast connection in WDM networks: routing and wavelength assignment. [10 Jul 2008]
How Does Load Balancing Work?
White Paper It is based on standard routing protocols, such as Routing Information Protocol (RIP), RIPv2, Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), and Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP), or derived from... [10 Jul 2008]
A Node-Centric Load Balancing Algorithm for Wireless Sensor Networks
White Paper It was found that the algorithm achieves routing trees that are more effectively balanced than the routing based on Breadth-First Search (BFS) and shortest-path obtained by Dijkstra's algorithm. It utilizes a Chebyshev Sum metric to evaluate via... [10 Jul 2008]
