DiffServ and MPLS – Concepts and Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Differentiated Services (DiffServ) is scalable for deployment in today’s Internet, and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) provides fast packet switching and the opportunity for traffic engineering. Thus, the combination of DiffServ and MPLS presents a very attractive strategy to backbone network providers. This paper attempts to explain the concepts of DiffServ + MPLS and illustrate its effectiveness by performing a simulation using Network Simulator (ns-2). The results show the fast rerouting feature of MPLS and how it alleviates the problem of link failures in DiffServ networks.

Discrete Event Simulation of the DiffServ-over-MPLS with NIST GMPLS Lightwave Agile Switching Simulator (GLASS)
In this paper, we explain the discrete event network simulation for DiffServ-aware-MPLS on the GMPLS-based WDM Optical Network. The simulation has been performed on the NIST GMPLS Lightpath Agile Switching Simulator (GLASS). We also briefly explain the design and implementation of the GLASS, and report the current implementation status and experimental results. The NIST GLASS has been developed...
متن کاملDiffServ over MPLS: Solutions and a Performance Evaluation Tool
Next generation multi-service networks must meet basically two fundamental requirements: Quality of Service (QoS) in an Internet-based context and Traffic Engineering (TE) functionalities. DiffServ-over-MPLS stands for the most reliable solution to fulfill them in a flexible way. Anyway, even if both Diffserv and MPLS technologies have been the subjects of several works, the design and the impl...
متن کاملAn MPLS-based Quality of Service Architecture for Heterogeneous Networks
(ABSTRACT) This thesis proposes a multi-protocol label switching (MPLS)-based architecture to provide quality of service (QoS) for both internet service provider (ISP) networks and backbone Internet Protocol (IP) networks that are heterogeneous in nature. Heterogeneous networks are present due to the use of different link-layer mechanisms in the current Internet. Copper-based links, fiber-based...
متن کاملAutonomous Agents for Self-managed MPLS DiffServ-TE Domain
The combination between DiffServ (Differentiated Services) and Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) presents a very attractive strategy to backbone network service providers. It provides scalable QoS and traffic engineering capabilities. However, the management of such a network is not a simple function and could not be done manually. In fact, it would be much more economic and effective to au...
متن کاملA Traffic Engineering Approach to Differentiated Multicast Services over MPLS Networks
Currently, a viable solution to provide multicast provision over a multiprotocol label switch with traffic engineering (MPLS-TE) domain is unavailable because of the missing link able to couple multicast traffic distribution with an MPLS-TE enabled network. This is due to the limited or less research investigation that was done in this area. Most of the investigation methods tackle the problem ...
