IP Alias Resolution Techniques

چکیده
The well-known traceroute probing method discovers links between interfaces on Internet routers. IP alias resolution, the process of identifying IP addresses belonging to the same router, is a critical step in producing Internet topology maps. We compare known alias resolution techniques, and suggest a practical combination of techniques that can produce the most accurate and complete IP-to-router mapping.

Palmtree: An IP alias resolution algorithm with linear probing complexity
Internet topology mapping studies utilize large scale topology maps to analyze various characteristics of the Internet. IP alias resolution, the task of mapping IP addresses to their corresponding routers, is an important task in building such topology maps. In this paper, we present a new probe-based IP alias resolution tool called palmtree. Palmtree can be used to complement the existing sche...
متن کاملInternet - Scale IPv 4 Alias Resolution with MIDAR : System Architecture
—A critical step in creating accurate Internet topology maps from traceroute data is mapping IP addresses to routers, a process known as alias resolution. Recent work in alias resolution inferred aliases based on similarities in IP ID time series produced by different IP addresses. We design, implement, and experiment with a new tool that builds on these insights to scale to Internet-scale topo...
متن کاملHow to Resolve IP Aliases
To construct accurate Internet maps, traceroute-based mapping efforts must group interface IP addresses into routers, a task known as alias resolution. In this paper, we introduce two new alias resolution approaches based on inference to handle addresses that cannot be resolved by existing methods based on probe measurements. The first decodes the DNS names assigned by the ISP to recognize the ...
متن کاملIPv6 Alias Resolution via Induced Fragmentation
Discovering router-level IPv6 topologies is important to understanding IPv6 growth, structure, and evolution and relation to IPv4. This work presents a fingerprint-based IPv6 alias resolution technique that induces fragmented responses from IPv6 router interfaces. We leverage the way in which IPv6 implements fragmentation to provide reliable inferences. We demonstrate perfect alias resolution a...
متن کاملUAv6: Alias Resolution in IPv6 Using Unused Addresses
As the IPv6 Internet grows, alias resolution in IPv6 becomes more important. Traditional IPv4 alias resolution techniques such as Ally do not work for IPv6 because of protocol differences. Recent techniques adopted specifically for IPv6 have shown promise, but utilize source routing, which has since been deprecated, or rely upon sequential fragment identifiers supported on only a third of route...
