Measuring ISP Topologies With Rocketfuel

Overview To date, realistic ISP topologies have not been accessible to the research community, leaving work that depends on topology on an uncertain footing. This paper presents new Internet mapping techniques that have enabled to directly measure router-level ISP topologies. The techniques reduce the number of required traces compared to a brute-force, all-to-all approach by three orders of magnitude without a significant loss in accuracy. They include the use of BGP routing tables to focus the measurements, exploiting properties of IP routing to eliminate redundant measurements, better alias resolution, and the use of DNS to divide each map into POPs and backbone.
