Abstract
Most major operators use MPLS technology to manage their network via signalling and label distribution protocols. However, these protocols are complex to deploy, maintain and troubleshooting is often very difficult. The IETF has initiated the standardization of a segment routing architecture [...]Abstract
This project presents two contributions to the PCE implementation in Telefonica I+D: Segment Routing and the upgrade of the BGP-LS protocol to the 3rd version of the draft to support MPLS and GMPLS scenarios. Regarding the first contribution, this document is intended to assess the [...]Abstract
Optimizing the way traffic is routed over networks has been of interest since we first started using computer networks to communicate and exchange information. Network technologies are constantly evolving and so do the underlying problems that need to be solved. This thesis focus [...]Abstract
National audience; This research paper proposes IEEE802.3az incorporated green algorithmic schemes on the software defined networking-based segment routing (SDN-based SR) centralized network. The proposed schemes are the green (i.e. the EAGER and CARE metrics) SDN-based SR networks [...]Abstract
International audience; Energy consumption has become a limiting factor for deploying large-scale distributed infrastructures. This work 1 seeks to improve the energy efficiency of backbone networks by providing an intra-domain Software Defined Network (SDN) approach to selectively [...]Abstract
Segment Routing (SR) combines the simplicity of Link-State routing protocols with the flexibility of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS). By decomposing forwarding paths into segments, identified by labels, SR improves Traffic Engineering (TE) and enables new solutions for the optimization [...]Abstract
International audience; Abstract: Segment Routing is a new architecture that leverages the source routing mechanism to enhance packet forwarding in networks. It is designed to operate over either an MPLS (SR-MPLS) or an IPv6 control plane. SR-MPLS encodes a path as a stack of labels [...]
