Testing implementation of FAMTAR: Adaptive multipath routing

Abstract: Flow-Aware Multi-Topology Adaptive Routing (FAMTAR) is a new approach to multipath and adaptive routing in IP networks which enables automatic use of alternative paths when the primary one becomes congested. It provides more efficient network resource utilization and higher quality of transmission compared to standard IP routing. However, thus far it has only been evaluated through simulations. In this paper we share our experiences from building a realtime FAMTAR router and present results of its tests in a p… Show more

“…The controller was responsible both for managing emulated optical layer resources and routing and traffic engineering in the network. In data plane, we extended the Click-based FAMTAR router implementation provided in [21] with the elements necessary to communicate with the controller and operate in multi-layer architecture. At the beginning of each simulation, two classes of veth Linux tunnels were created between the nodes: direct IP layer interfaces between nodes directly connected in the emulated topology and bypass interfaces between all pairs of nodes in the network.…”

“…That is the reason why research on distributed traffic engineering systems has been limited. The most prominent examples of such systems are MPLS-based MATE [4] and TeXCP [5], as well as flow-based FAMTAR [6].…”

“…The selection of routes for new flows can be adjusted according to the current or anticipated network load, adaptively bypassing overloaded links. Additionally, such flow-based adaptive routing offers more stability than traditional dynamic load balancing [3].…”
