Aggregation Support in the NSFNET Policy-Based Routing Database
نویسندگان
چکیده
This document describes plans for support of route aggregation, as specified in the descriptions of Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) [1] and the BGP-4 protocol [2], by the NSFNET Backbone Network Service. Mechanisms for exchange of route aggregates between the backbone service and regional/midlevel networks are specified. Additionally, the memo proposes the implementation of an Aggregate Registry which can be used by network service providers to share information about the use of aggregation. Finally, the operational impact of incorporating CIDR and aggregation is considered, including an analysis of how routing table size will be affected. This impact analysis will be used to modify the deployment plan, if necessary, to maximize operational stability.

EGP and policy based routing in the new NSFNET backbone
Status of this Memo This memo discusses implementation decisions for routing issues in the NSFNET, especially in the NSFNET Backbone. Of special concern is the restriction of routing information to advertize the best route as established by a policy decision. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
متن کاملRFC 1222 Advancing the NSFNET
In the first phase of the NSFNET Backbone, a 56Kbps infrastructure utilized routers based on Fuzzball software [2]. The Phase 1 Backbone used the Hello Protocol for interior routing. At the periphery of the Backbone, the client networks were typically connected by using a gatedaemon ("gated") interface to translate between the Backbone’s Hello Protocol and the interior gateway protocol (IGP) of...

The Internet is a complex mesh of networks that use a common suite (TCP/IP) of networking protocols. A key feature of the Internet is that all of these constituent networks are interconnected, thereby providing system wide communication. The magnitude and pattern of the ow of routing information directly represents the con-nectivity stability of the Internet. The NSFNET backbone network provide...
متن کاملWiretap: An Experimental Multiple-Path Routing Algorithm1,2,3
This paper introduces Wiretap, an experimental routing algorithm which computes maximum-likelihood diversity routes for packet-radio stations sharing a common broadcast channel, but with some stations hidden from others. The wiretapper observes the paths (source routes) used by other stations sending traffic on the channel and, using a heuristic set of factors and weights, constructs speculativ...
متن کاملBeyond CIDR Aggregation
Previously Broido and Claffy analysed the global Internet interdomain routing system based on BGP policy atoms: equivalence classes of prefixes based on common AS path as observed from a number of topological locations [6] [7]. In this report we define a variant of policy atoms, called declared atoms. Declared atoms constitute an aggregation mechanism complementary to CIDR aggregation. We descr...
