“…A recent study has demonstrated that it is possible to create ALTO network and topology maps using DNS, active performance measurements and video simulation data available at public source. Additionally during this process the subscribers' anonymity is guaranteed [177]. The information is used to construct bandwidth and latency cost maps that allow to select the best peers to increase P2P applications' performance without requesting private or sensitive information to the NSPs.…”

“…Additionally, the information obtained through the OF-CONFIG protocol may not be enough to optimise network performance. For instance, OF-CONFIG Scharf et al [172] Gurbani et al [177] Li et al [174] Zhang et al [175] Scharf et al [176] Gurbani et al [173] Wang et al [178] Faigl et al [179] does not inform about the CPU usage of the network device, which can influence its forwarding capability. In order to solve these problems, the EU Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) SPARC project proposed a mechanism to share information between the OpenFlow controllers and the OCPs [206], [207].…”

Since the appearance of OpenFlow back in 2008, Software-Defined Networking (SDN) has gained momentum. Although there are some discrepancies between the standards developing organisations working with SDN about what SDN is and how it is defined, they all outline Traffic Engineering (TE) as a key application. One of the most common objectives of TE is the congestion minimisation, where techniques such as traffic splitting among multiple paths or advanced reservation systems are used. In such a scenario, this manuscript surveys the role of a comprehensive list of SDN protocols in TE solutions, in order to assess how these protocols can benefit TE. The SDN protocols have been categorised using the SDN architecture proposed by the Open Networking Foundation (ONF), which differentiates among Data-Controller Plane Interfaces, Application-Controller Plane Interfaces and Management Interfaces, in order to state how the interface type in which they operate influences TE. In addition, the impact of the SDN protocols on TE has been evaluated by comparing them with the Path Computation Element (PCE)based architecture. The PCE-based architecture has been selected to measure the impact of SDN on TE because it is the most novel TE architecture until the date, and because it already defines a set of metrics to measure the performance of TE solutions. We conclude that using the three types of interfaces simultaneously will result in more powerful and enhanced TE solutions, since they benefit TE in complementary ways.

“…3, the ALTO architecture allows external interfaces, so that thirdparties be able to feed an ALTO server. The work in (GURBANI et al, 2014) demonstrates how outside parties can create a network topology and cost maps for ALTO from public sources of information, specifically using the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) public database from the Measuring Broadband America (MBA) program. The authors compiled over 1 billion records spread over 90 GBytes.…”

“…Most of ALTO implementations today are created by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) based on their individual knowledge of their network dynamics and on the costs associated with peering and transit links (GURBANI et al, 2014). However, recent efforts (GUR-BANI et al, 2014) show that third parties (not associated with ISPs) can also create valuable Network and Cost Maps from public information.…”
