Open-Source PC-Based Software Routers: A Viable Approach to High-Performance Packet Switching
White Paper This paper considers IP routers based on off-the-shelf Personal Computer (PC) hardware running the Linux open-source operating system. The choice of building IP routers with off-the-shelf hardware stems... [01 Oct 2008]
Designing MPLS Extensions for Customer Edge Routers
White Paper Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) have become increasingly important as more and more businesses are connecting to a Service Provider's network. Keeping data private as it travels across a Service Provider's network is the ultimate concern... [01 Oct 2008]
Equipment-Level Reliability of High-End Routers
White Paper As IP technologies develop quickly, value-added services are widely used on the Internet. New carrier-class services, such as NGN/3G, IPTV streaming media, VIP leased line, and VPN interconnection, place high requirements on the... [01 Oct 2008]
Cisco Secure Integrated Firewall Software
White Paper Routers are ubiquitous in networks. Therefore routers form a natural and readily available platform for security. This paper takes a look at new Cisco IOS features encompassing security. Some of the... [01 Oct 2008]
Technical White Paper for ATM-ETH IWF
White Paper The routers with IWF feature provide a perfect solution for making full use of existent ATM network and devices (ATM DSLAM, ATM Switch, etc. With the development of Ethernet, ATM access network is stepping towards Ethernet. [01 Oct 2008]
MPLS-Aware NetFlow
White Paper MultiProtocol Label Switching (MPLS)-aware NetFlow is an extension of the NetFlow accounting feature that provides highly granular traffic statistics for Cisco routers. MPLS-aware NetFlow collects statistics on a... [01 Oct 2008]
Protection and Restoration in MPLS Networks
White Paper MPLS does not replace IP routing, but works alongside existing and future routing technologies to provide very high-speed data forwarding between Label-Switched Routers (LSRs) together with reservation of bandwidth for... [01 Oct 2008]
Characterizing Network Events and Their Impact on Routing
White Paper Routers, network interface cards, and IP links can fail or malfunction for many reasons. This paper calls network events incidents that disturb the normal behavior of one or more elements of an IP network. [01 Oct 2008]
Top 10 Reasons Why TCP Is Reliable
White Paper It allows you to understand how firewalls and routers limit the flow of dangerous information in and out of your networks. In-depth knowledge of protocols can help you in many ways. It enables more efficient... [30 Sep 2008]
Better Security through Access-List Management
White Paper You can get limited security with the access-list on your routers. Security concerns are becoming more common in every environment, regardless how big or small the network. This paper gives you the basics of access-list... [30 Sep 2008]
Programming Routers to Improve Network Security
White Paper Functional to one's approach is a network signaling protocol, named Active Security Protocol, which allows a set of active routers to interact in order to isolate the sources of a DDoS attack even in the case of address... [19 Sep 2008]
Automatic VPN Client Recovery From IPsec Pass-Through Failures
White Paper Network Address Translation (NAT) is often used in routers that connect home and small-office networks to the Internet. Unfortunately, NAT may not interoperate well with many protocols, including IPsec, the security... [19 Sep 2008]
Adaptive Bandwidth Allocation in Broadband Networks
White Paper DiffServ routers are stateless and do not keep track of individual flows, making it scalable to be deployed in the Internet. New broadband network applications require certain performance guarantees that can be provided... [19 Sep 2008]
The IP Clustering Power of Nokia IP VPN - Keeping Customers Connected
White Paper Most traditional routers are easily capable of providing this service, perhaps with some disruption of service. There has been an evolution in the functions performed by IP networks, from simply routing packets between... [19 Sep 2008]
Scalable IP-VPN Flow Control Mechanism Supporting Arbitrary Fairness Criteria
White Paper The core of I2VFC is an AIMD (Additive Increase and Multiplicative Decrease) window flow control operating among IP-VPN service provider's edge routers. In recent years, IP-based Virtual Private Networks (IP-VPNs), which... [19 Sep 2008]
