IPv6
 Initial motivation: 32-bit address space soon
to be completely allocated.
 Additional motivation:
header format helps speed processing/forwarding
 header changes to facilitate QoS
IPv6 datagram format:
 fixed-length 40 byte header
 no fragmentation allowed

11
IPv6 Header (Cont)
Priority: identify priority among datagrams in flow
Flow Label: identify datagrams in same “flow.”
(concept of“flow” not well defined).
Next header: identify upper layer protocol for data
12
Other Changes from IPv4
 Checksum: removed entirely to reduce
processing time at each hop
 Options: allowed, but outside of header,
indicated by “Next Header” field

Hierarchical Routing
Our routing study thus far - idealization
 all routers identical
 network “flat”
… not true in practice
scale: with 200 million
destinations:
 can’t store all dest’s in
routing tables!
 routing table exchange
would swamp links!
administrative autonomy
 internet = network of
networks
 each network admin may
want to control routing in its
own network
17
Hierarchical Routing
 aggregate routers into
regions, “autonomous
systems” (AS)
 routers in same AS run
same routing protocol


Gateway router
 Direct link to router in
another AS
“intra-AS” routing
protocol
routers in different AS
can run different intraAS routing protocol

Intra-AS sets entries
for internal dests
Inter-AS & Intra-As
sets entries for
external dests
19
Inter-AS tasks
AS1 needs:
1. to learn which dests
are reachable through
AS2 and which
through AS3
2. to propagate this
reachability info to all
routers in AS1
Job of inter-AS routing!
 Suppose router in AS1
receives datagram for
which dest is outside
of AS1

Router should forward
packet towards one of
the gateway routers,
but which one?

Example: Setting forwarding table
in router 1d
 Suppose AS1 learns from the inter-AS
protocol that subnet x is reachable from
AS3 (gateway 1c) but not from AS2.
 Inter-AS protocol propagates reachability
info to all internal routers.
 Router 1d determines from intra-AS
routing info that its interface I is on the
least cost path to 1c.
 Puts in forwarding table entry (x,I).
21
Example: Choosing among multiple ASes
 Now suppose AS1 learns from the inter-AS protocol
that subnet x is reachable from AS3 and from AS2.
 To configure forwarding table, router 1d must
determine towards which gateway it should forward
packets for dest x.
 This is also the job on inter-AS routing protocol!
 Hot potato routing: send packet towards closest of
two routers.
Learn from inter-AS
protocol that subnet
x is reachable via
multiple gateways
Use routing info
from intra-AS
protocol to determine
costs of least-cost
paths to each
of the gateways
Hot potato routing:
Choose the gateway
that has the
smallest least cost
Determine from
forwarding table the
interface I that leads
to least-cost gateway.
Enter (x,I) in
forwarding table

 Also known as Interior Gateway Protocols (IGP)
 Most common Intra-AS routing protocols:

RIP: Routing Information Protocol

OSPF: Open Shortest Path First

RIP ( Routing Information Protocol)
 Distance vector algorithm
 Included in BSD-UNIX Distribution in 1982
 Distance metric: # of hops (max = 15 hops)
 # of hops: # of subnets traversed along the shortest path
from src. router to dst. subnet (e.g., src. = A)

RIP advertisements
 Distance vectors: exchanged among
neighbors every 30 sec via Response
Message (also called advertisement)
 Each advertisement: list of up to 25
destination nets within AS

RIP: Link Failure and Recovery
If no advertisement heard after 180 sec -->
neighbor/link declared dead
 routes via neighbor invalidated
 new advertisements sent to neighbors
 neighbors in turn send out new advertisements (if
tables changed)
 link failure info quickly propagates to entire net
 poison reverse used to prevent ping-pong loops
(infinite distance = 16 hops)
29
RIP Table processing
 RIP routing tables managed by application-level
process called route-d (daemon)
 advertisements sent in UDP packets, periodically
repeated

OSPF (Open Shortest Path First)
 “open”: publicly available
 Uses Link State algorithm
 LS packet dissemination
 Topology map at each node
 Route computation using Dijkstra’s algorithm
 Link costs configured by the network administrator
 OSPF advertisement carries one entry per neighbor
router
 Advertisements disseminated to entire AS (via
flooding)

Carried in OSPF messages directly over IP (rather than TCP
or UDP
32
OSPF “advanced” features (not in RIP)
 Security: all OSPF messages authenticated (to




prevent malicious intrusion)
Multiple same-cost paths allowed (only one path in
RIP)
For each link, multiple cost metrics for different
TOS (e.g., satellite link cost set “low” for best effort;
high for real time)
Integrated uni- and multicast support:
 Multicast OSPF (MOSPF) uses same topology data
base as OSPF
Hierarchical OSPF in large domains.
33
Hierarchical OSPF
34
Hierarchical OSPF
 Two-level hierarchy: local area, backbone.
 Link-state
advertisements only in area
 each node has detailed area topology;
 Area border routers: “summarize” distances
to nets in own area, advertise to other Area
Border routers.
 Backbone routers: run OSPF routing limited
to backbone.
 Boundary routers: connect to other AS’s.

36
Internet inter-AS routing: BGP
 BGP (Border Gateway Protocol): the de
facto standard
 BGP provides each AS a means to:
1.
2.
3.
Obtain subnet reachability information from
neighboring ASs.
Propagate the reachability information to all
routers internal to the AS.
Determine “good” routes to subnets based on
reachability information and policy.
 Allows a subnet to advertise its existence
to rest of the Internet: “I am here”
37
BGP basics
 Pairs of routers (BGP peers) exchange routing info over TCP
conections: BGP sessions
 Note that BGP sessions do not correspond to physical links.
 When AS2 advertises a prefix to AS1, AS2 is promising it will
forward any datagrams destined to that prefix towards the
prefix.

AS2 can aggregate prefixes in its advertisement

Distributing reachability info
 With eBGP session between 3a and 1c, AS3 sends prefix
reachability info to AS1.
 1c can then use iBGP do distribute this new prefix reach info
to all routers in AS1
 1b can then re-advertise the new reach info to AS2 over the
1b-to-2a eBGP session
 When router learns about a new prefix, it creates an entry
for the prefix in its forwarding table.

Path attributes & BGP routes
 When advertising a prefix, advert includes BGP
attributes.

prefix + attributes = “route”
 Two important attributes:
 AS-PATH: contains the ASs through which the advert
for the prefix passed: AS 67 AS 17
 NEXT-HOP: Indicates the specific internal-AS router to
next-hop AS. (There may be multiple links from current
AS to next-hop-AS.)
 When gateway router receives route advert, uses
import policy to accept/decline.
