MPLS Traffic Engineering in ISP Network

MPLS Traffic Engineering in ISP Network

Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is an innovative and vibrant technology. The most famous applications of MPLS technology are MPLS VPN, MPLT Traffic engineering and MPLS QoS and Any Transport over MPLS (AToM). This study addressed only MPLS Traffic engineering, which is one of the driving factors of deploying MPLS in service provider networks. This research consists of two main sections; i...

MPLS Multicast Traffic Engineering

In this paper, we present multicast traffic engineering and we compare it to unicast traffic engineering. We study the advantages given by the integration of multicasting and MPLS. We present current proposals for multicast traffic engineering and using MPLS network. We describe our approach, the MPLS multicast tree (MMT) protocol. In order to reduce forwarding states and enhance scalability, M...

A graph theoretical approach to traffic management in ISP networks using the overlay MPLS network

We describe a problem of traffic redundancy over Internet Service Provider Networks (ISPs) that occurs when the links to the client’s network are highly utilized. The ingoing traffic is highly unpredictable when multiple ingress points exists for the flows originating in the Internet. Therefore, traffic engineering mechanisms are more difficult to apply. A solution for avoiding this problem by ...

MPLS Traffic Engineering Soft Preemption

This document specifies Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Traffic Engineering Soft Preemption, a suite of protocol modifications extending the concept of preemption with the goal of reducing or eliminating traffic disruption of preempted Traffic Engineering Label Switched Paths (TE LSPs). Initially, MPLS RSVP-TE was defined with support for only immediate TE LSP displacement upon preemption....
