From the Traffic Properties to Traffic Engineering in the Internet
Implications of the Traffic Properties on Traffic Engineering with BGP: The View from Stub ASes.
Omschrijving
Due to concerns about resilience and performance,
more and more stub networks in the Internet rely
on multi-homing. Multi-homing consists in connecting
a network to the Internet at different access
points. As traffic leaves and enters the network
through several access links, multi-homed networks
need to control their traffic, also called traffic
engineering. Multi-homed networks typically perform
traffic engineering by tweaking the BGP routing
protocol. The purpose of BGP is to distribute the
information about reachable networks across the whole
Internet, not to perform traffic engineering.
It is thus important for multi-homed networks to know
the complexity of traffic engineering with BGP.
In this book, we explain how BGP can be used to
engineer the traffic and what can be expected from
doing it. The content of this book targets two types
of readers. First, the network managers of small
to medium-size stub networks will better understand
BGP and how to use it to engineer their traffic.
Second, researchers in networking will learn about
three different research areas: Internet traffic
characteristics, interdomain routing, and
evolutionary optimization.
