An Architecture for Managing QoS-Enabled VPNs over the Internet
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes an architecture for the management of QoS-enabled virtual private networks (VPNs) over the Internet. The architecture focuses on two important issues of VPNs: security and Quality-of-Service (QoS). The security achieved in VPNs is based on IPSec tunnels, while QoS can be supported by mechanisms as proposed by the Differentiated Services currently being defined by the IETF. We describe an architecture that is based on the concept of service brokers. These service brokers are used for communication between different domains (such as ISP and customer networks) as well as within domains. The architecture described in the paper is currently being implemented as part of the CATI project funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF).

Building MPLS VPNs with QoS Routing Capabilty
Recently MPLS is used for building up VPNs in IP backbone, called MPLS VPNs. In this paper, we discuss issues on finding routes with QoS requirements (i.e., QoS routing) in MPLS VPNs. We first present background on MPLS VPNs as well as QoS routing. Then we discuss both the benefits and problems resulted from introducing QoS routing into MPLS VPNs. We particularly present an architecture of MPLS...

Internet Traffic has grown exponentially over last few years due to provision of multiple class services through Internet backbone. With the explosive use of Internet, contemporary Internet routers are susceptible to overloads and their services deteriorate drastically and often cause denial of services. In this paper, an analysis is made how forecasting technique, routing algorithm and Genetic...
متن کاملImplementation of a Bandwidth Broker for Dynamic End-to-End Resource Reservation in Outsourced Virtual Private Networks
As today’s network infrastructure continues to grow and Differentiated Services IP backbones are now available to provide various levels of quality of service (QoS) to VPN traffic, the ability to manage increasing network complexity is considered as a crucial factor for QoS enabled VPN solutions. There is growing trend by corporate customers to outsource such complicated management services to ...
متن کاملArchitecture and Analysis for providing Virtual Private Networks (VPN) with QoS over Optical WDM Networks
In this paper, we study the problem of employing virtual private networks (VPN) over wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) networks to satisfy diverse quality of service (QoS) requirements of different VPNs. A wavelength routed backbone network is considered. A VPN is specified by the desired logical topology and an a priori traffic matrix. The network provides three type of paths over which s...

VPN is an enterprise network based on a shared public network infrastructure but providing the same security, management, and throughput policies as applied in a private network. The primary advantages of "VPN over Internet" are cost-effectiveness and flexibility while coping with the exponential growth of Internet. However, the current disadvantages are the lack of sufficient QoS and provision...
