چکیده
This paper proposes a management of DiffServ-over-MPLS transit network with BFD(Bidirectional Forwarding Detection)/OAM (operation, administration and maintenance) in ForCES (Forwarding and Control Element Separation) architecture for QoS-guaranteed DiffServ-over-MPLS traffic engineering. The proposed BFD and ForCES functions are implemented on Intel 2400 network processor, where BFD/OAM packets for MPLS TE-LSP are exchanged every 5 ~ 10 ms interval for performance measurements and link failure detection. The operations of BFD/OAM-based fault detection and performance measurement are controlled via distributed control plane with ForCES (forwarding and control element separation) architecture for large scale IP/MPLS router using multiple network processors in each network interface card. We explain the implementation details of ForCES-based distributed control plane functions, hierarchical traffic grooming with label stacking, and BFD/OAM mechanisms. The link failure detection performance of BFD/OAM functions for MPLS TE-LSP is evaluated.

Design and Implementation of Performance Management for the DiffServ-aware-MPLS Network
MPLS has been developed to provide efficient traffic engineering capability for the massive high-speed Internet traffic. The major advantages of the MPLS are (i) fast label switching mechanism to increase the packet forwarding capability, and (ii) the connection oriented traffic engineering to provide flexible load balancing in the transit network. DiffServ-over-MPLS architecture provides diffe...
متن کاملWBEM-based Inter-AS Performance Monitoring for QoS-guaranteed DiffServ-over-MPLS
To guarantee the user-requested QoS and to keep the network utilization at maximum, the performance management of DiffServ-over-MPLS is essential. The performance management function monitors the network utilization and verifies the network performance compared with the agreed SLA (Service Level agreement). Constraint-based routing for guaranteed QoS provisioning must be used in the LSP establi...
متن کاملAn MPLS-based Quality of Service Architecture for Heterogeneous Networks
(ABSTRACT) This thesis proposes a multi-protocol label switching (MPLS)-based architecture to provide quality of service (QoS) for both internet service provider (ISP) networks and backbone Internet Protocol (IP) networks that are heterogeneous in nature. Heterogeneous networks are present due to the use of different link-layer mechanisms in the current Internet. Copper-based links, fiber-based...
