Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and a device for calculating a routing table for routing within a communication network formed with nodes and links.
- next node determines from the routing table present to the node, which relates the destination addresses contained in the packets to next hops.
- the routing tables are set up or calculated by means of routing protocols. Examples of such routing protocols are the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol used on the Internet and used in conjunction with the IP (Internet Protocol) protocol and the IS / IS (Intermediate System to Intermediate System) protocol , Routing based on destination addresses specified in the packets is also referred to as "destination-based routing" or routing based on destination addresses.
- OSPF Open Shortest Path First
- IP Internet Protocol
- IS / IS Intermediate System to Intermediate System
- the object of the invention is to optimize the calculation of routing tables for communication networks formed with nodes and links.
- the object is achieved by the subject matters of the independent claims 1 and 10.
- the invention is based on the idea of carrying out part of the calculations for setting up routing tables on a server.
- the following is a simplified assumption of a server and its calculations are called central calculations, although the
- a central calculation of routes is carried out between in each case one network-internal start and end node.
- start and end nodes are nodes of the network, that is, edge nodes or inner nodes.
- For traffic which is routed to a destination outside the communication network it makes sense to use one of the edge nodes of the communication network as the end node, from which the traffic is transmitted in the direction of the destination to another network.
- Information about the centrally calculated routes are communicated to a node of the network, for example by means of a communication protocol. This information consists e.g. from the specification of the next hop for the routing to an edge node.
- the node calculates by means of a routing protocol, for example the OSPF protocol or the IS / IS protocol, the entries for a Routingtabel ⁇ le.
- a routing protocol for example the OSPF protocol or the IS / IS protocol
- destination addresses learned via the routing protocol of packets to be transported are assigned to the centrally calculated network-internal routes.
- This mapping can be done using unique router IDs, such as the 32-bit router ID described in the OSPF Standard RFC2328.
- the information transmitted to the router does not necessarily include complete routes. In principle, the information about the calculated routes can be limited to the information needed for an assignment of
- Destination addresses to routes is necessary. How extensive the information is in the individual case depends on the routing used. In conventional IP networks, e.g. the next hops are routed to an end node within the network (e.g., an edge node from which a further route to another network occurs) and the respective end node is specified.
- an end node within the network e.g., an edge node from which a further route to another network occurs
- the invention has the advantage that the calculation of the routes takes place centrally and thus the information relating to the routes can be forwarded to a plurality of nodes, for example all nodes of the network, so that the corresponding computational effort is only once and not for all nodes using the routes are incurred.
- the invention is particularly advantageous in the use of multipath routing, because in this case the route calculation is considerably more complex and thus more computational effort can be saved. Information that is used only for route calculation, for example a traffic matrix, does not need to be distributed to the individual nodes in this way. In the case of multipath routing, a central determination of traffic distribution weights can also be carried out.
- the traffic distribution weights serve to control the distribution of the traffic to the alternative routes of the multipath routing and can be used at the router for the determination or calculation of routing tables.
- each node can continue to react autonomously in the event of a fault, ie Thus, from a failed connection to a neighbor, the remaining routes of the multipath routing have to be changed, that is, they do not depend on a quick reaction of the central calculations.
- the invention also encompasses a device for calculating a routing table within a communication network formed with nodes and links, which has a central device (eg a server) with means for calculating routes between end nodes of a network and at least one node
- a central device eg a server
- Means for creating a routing table by means of a routing protocol are provided for communication between the central device and the respective node, which comprise, for example, a communication protocol. If the network works with multipath routing, means for determining traffic distribution weights in the central device and means for transmitting the distribution weights to the nodes can also be provided.
- NCS Network Control Server
- routers or nodes A through G are shown which form part of a network.
- the figure describes how the router D computes a part of its routing table with the aid of routing information provided by the central device NCS.
- Routers A, F, G and E represent next hops or nodes directly connected to router D.
- Routers B and C are edge routers of the network over which traffic is routed to other networks.
- the dotted links connecting these two edge routers B and C to the other illustrated routers of the network indicate dropped network elements (roughness). ter and links) via which traffic can be forwarded to the edge nodes.
- the table T1 contains information which is transmitted from the central device NCS to the node D. This information is intended for multipath routing, which provides at least two alternative next hops of D for the transmission of traffic to a destination.
- the central device specifies to the node that traffic to be transmitted to the edge node B is to be transmitted 20% over the next hop F and 80% over the next hop G. Traffic to edge node C is to be transferred 60% over the next hop E and 40% over the next hop G.
- addresses Pl to P3 of networks are shown, which are accessible via the edge router or edge node C.
- the addresses P4 to P6 of networks which can be reached via the edge router B are shown in the table T3.
- the representation of the addresses follows the usual convention for the representation of IP addresses, whereby the address and the mask (behind the slash) necessary for the interpretation of the address as network address are specified.
- the information about the networks which can be reached via respective edge routers is propagated through the network.
- the router D learns which networks it can reach via the edge routers B and C, respectively. It therefore assigns these network addresses to next hops in accordance with the information transmitted by the central device.
- the resulting routing table FIB (FIB: stands for forwarding information base) is shown in the figure.
- the network addresses Pl to P3 are assigned the next hops E and G and the network addresses P4 to P6 the next hops F and G.
- the table FIB shown in the figure shows only a very small section of a realistic routing table. Actual routing tables are far more extensive.
- the invention requires only a simple assignment of the network addresses available to the edge routers the central device are made predetermined next hops or vor ⁇ given routes. There is no need to complete route calculation at each of the nodes.
