چکیده
In this paper, we attempt to understand the benefits of MPLS traffic engineering through a case study. Specifically, we do a comparative study of MPLS traffic engineering in the presence of dynamic constraint-based routing compared to destination-based routing. For this case study, we use a model derived from an actual service provider network. Different control schemes that can be deployable for MPLS traffic engineering are also considered. This case study shows that services can indeed obtain benefits from constraint-based routing and traffic engineering controls.

Advanced operations research techniques for multi-constraint QoS routing in internet
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 کاملTraffic Engineering with MPLS in the Internet
This paper discusses Traffic Engineering with Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) in an Internet Service Provider’s (ISP) network. In this paper, we first briefly review MPLS, Constraint-based Routing and enhanced link state Interior Gateway Protocols (IGPs) to provide a background for Traffic Engineering. We then discuss the general issues of designing an MPLS system for Traffic Engineering....
متن کاملA Traffic Engineering Approach to Differentiated Multicast Services over MPLS Networks
Currently, a viable solution to provide multicast provision over a multiprotocol label switch with traffic engineering (MPLS-TE) domain is unavailable because of the missing link able to couple multicast traffic distribution with an MPLS-TE enabled network. This is due to the limited or less research investigation that was done in this area. Most of the investigation methods tackle the problem ...

متن کاملA Study of Constraint-based Routing with MPLS
This paper presents simulation and analysis of constraint-based routing (CR) with MPLS (multiprotocol label switching). MPLS is basically a fast forwarding scheme for the core of the Internet. Constraint-based routing computes routes that are subject to constraints to meet QoS (quality of service) requirements. Constraint-based routing with MPLS greatly enhances network utilization and enables ...
