Selecting the Best Spanning Tree in Metro Ethernet Networks using Genetic Algorithm
IEEE Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a layer-2 protocol which ensures a loop free topology in Metro Ethernet networks. It is based on Minimum Spanning Tree solution that involves determining the links which can join all the nodes of a network together such that the sum of the costs of the chosen links is minimized. In STP, all customers need to use the same spanning tree and there isn’t any tra...
متن کاملLoad Balanced Spanning Tree in Metro Ethernet Networks
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a link management standard that provides loop free paths in Ethernet networks. Deploying STP in metro area networks is inadequate because it does not meet the requirements of these networks. STP blocks redundant links, causing the risk of congestion close to the root. As a result, STP provides poor support for load balancing in metro Ethernet networks. A solution...
متن کاملLoad Balanced Spanning Tree (LBST) in Metro Ethernet Networks
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a link management protocol that provides path redundancy while preventing undesirable loops in the Ethernet networks. In fact, STP defines a tree that spans all switches in the network such that the sum of the costs of the chosen links is minimized. Deploying the STP to manage the topology autonomously is inadequate and do not meet the requirement for Metro Area ...

The economics and familiarity of Ethernet technology is motivating the vision of wide-scale adoption of Metro Ethernet Networks (MEN). Despite the progress made by the community on additional Ethernet standardization and commercialization of the first generation of MEN, the fundamental technology does not meet the expectations that carriers have traditionally held in terms of network resiliency...
متن کاملVirtual Private Network to Spanning Tree Mapping
Metro Ethernet has been widely adopted lately. One of its goals is to provide clients with VPN services, and in this context, loadbalancing and protection have become important issues. This paper presents an original formulation of these problems in Metro Ethernet, and introduces an algorithm for load balancing which provides good numerical results.
