Design and Implementation of Traffic Engineering Server for a Large-Scale MPLS-Based IP Network

摘要

As the Internet is quickly evolving from best-effort networks to a very critical communications infrastructure that requires higher quality Internet services and the delivery of such communications services become competitive, large-scale NSPs or ISPs have to concern much more on the performance and efficient resource usages of their networks. This situation naturally leads the providers to seek a possible solution from traffic engineering (TE) methodologies. In this paper, we propose a TE server solution for a large-scale MPLS-based IP autonomous system, which addresses these TE requirements such as the measurement, characterization, modeling and control of Internet traffic.
