چکیده

This document defines OSPF-xTE, an experimental traffic engineering (TE) extension to the link-state routing protocol OSPF. OSPF-xTE defines new TE Link State Advertisements (LSAs) to disseminate TE metrics within an autonomous System (AS), which may consist of multiple areas. When an AS consists of TE and non-TE nodes, OSPF-xTE ensures that non-TE nodes in the AS are unaffected by the TE LSAs. OSPF-xTE generates a stand-alone TE Link State Database (TE-LSDB), distinct from the native OSPF LSDB, for computation of TE circuit paths. OSPF-xTE is versatile and extendible to non-packet networks such as Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) / Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) and optical networks.

Prioritized OSPF-TE Mechanism for Multimedia Applications in MPLS Networks

Real time multimedia applications such as video streaming have been greatly introduced in networks and require Quality of Service (QoS). In MPLS based networks, OSPF with traffic engineering is widely used. It is responsible for finding feasible routes within networks, which have link state constraints such as bandwidth or delay. To serve dynamically changed traffic characteristics, OSPFTE need...

Artificial Intelligence Driven Solutions to Business and Engineering Problems

New idea for energy-efficient extension for OSPF protocol is presented. New concept is based on Dijkstra’s algorithm, which recalculates shortest path each time, when metric is updated. There is introduced in OSPF new metric’s value based on traffic load on routers’ interfaces.

Avoiding Instability during Graceful Shutdown of OSPF

Many recent router architectures decouple the routing engine from the forwarding engine, so that packet forwarding can continue even when the routing process is not active. This opens up the possibility of using the forwarding capability of a router even when its routing process is down, thus avoiding the route flaps that normally occur when the routing process goes down. Unfortunately, current...

Load-balanced routing with selective even traffic splitting∗

This paper proposes an even-split Smart-OSPF (S-OSPF) scheme to reduce network congestion more than the conventional non-split S-OSPF and to distribute traffic more easily than the conventional split S-OSPF. In split S-OSPF, source edge nodes distribute traffic unevenly to their neighbor nodes, but the implementation becomes involved to split traffic with different distribution. In non-split S-...

Traffic Engineering With Traditional IP Routing Protocols

Traffic engineering involves adapting the routing of traffic to the network conditions, with the joint goals of good user performance and efficient use of network resources. In this paper, we describe an approach to intradomain traffic engineering that works within the existing deployed base of Interior Gateway Protocols (IGPs), such as Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Intermediate System-In...
