Policy Provisioning Performance Evaluation using COPS-PR in a Policy Based Network
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a study carried out to evaluate policy provisioning performance, by COPS-PR protocol, in a policy based environment. First of all the prototypes developed are presented. These simulate the component behavior of the two lower layers of a policy based management system. Then the various measurements, done on the prototypes, are shown. All measures are carried out for several scenarios, described through the use appropriate configuration policies, in an increasing complexity order. It is demonstrated that the architecture of COPS-PR is scalable, though the PDP can become a

An RBAC-based PIB for Provisioning Access Control
This paper presents a framework for representing and distributing access control policies in distributed heterogeneous systems. Access control polices follows the RBAC (Role Based Access Control) model proposed by the NIST. The framework is based on the provisioning strategy defined by IETF, i.e., the RBAC information is represented in terms of a PIB (Policy Information Base) and distributed to...
متن کاملA Policy Based QoS Management System for the IntServ/DiffServ Based Internet
Policy based management is being adopted widely for different domains like QoS, security and VPNs in order to allow new services and facilitate network management. Also, the interface to the network device and the information models required for specifying policies are either standardized or being standardized in IETF and DMTF. This paper reports the design, implementation, and performance eval...
متن کاملTowards Extensible Policy
For several years, Configuration Management has been conducted mainly through command line or SNMP. However, while computer networks started growing bigger in size and complexity, it became apparent that these approaches suffer from significant scalability and efficiency limitations. PolicyBased Networking (PBN) seems to be a promising alternative for Configuration Management, and has already r...
متن کاملPolicy-Based Quality of Service Management in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks
Policy-Based Quality of Service Management in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks Kaustubh S. Phanse Managing mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) presents new challenges due to the need for a distributed management mechanism that can efficiently adapt to the dynamic nature of these networks. In particular, provisioning and management of Quality of Service (QoS) in such networks remains a challenging task. Pre...
متن کاملA Policy Based Framework for Access Control
This paper presents a policy-based framework for managing access control in distributed heterogeneous systems. This framework is based on the PDP/PEP approach. The PDP (Policy Decision Point) is a network policy server responsible for supplying policy information for network devices and applications. The PEP (Policy Enforcement Point) is the policy client (usually, a component of the network de...
