A comparison of overlay routing and multihoming route control

Abstract: The limitations of BGP routing in the Internet are often blamed for poor end-to-end performance and prolonged connectivity interruptions. Recent work advocates using overlays to effectively bypass BGP's path selection in order to improve performance and fault tolerance. In this paper, we explore the possibility that intelligent control of BGP routes, coupled with ISP multihoming, can provide competitive end-to-end performance and reliability. Using extensive measurements of paths between nodes in a large conte… Show more

“…This method actually models IPv6 multihoming where the provider-dependent prefixes advertised by the virtual site are aggregated by its providers. A total of 13 multihomed sites are emulated by this method, a number similar to the study of Akella et al on multihoming [20]. In our study, 10 sites are dual-homed, 1 is 3-homed, 1 is 4-homed and a last one has 8 providers.…”

“…In order to simulate IPv6 multihoming, we follow a similar methodology to the one used in [19,20]. We emulate a multihoming scenario by selecting a few RIPE nodes in the same metropolitan area, and use them collectively as a stand-in for a multihomed network.…”

“…The policy channel is then used to negotiate path switching through multihoming route control between the host and infrastructure tiers. [1] and [11] analyze the effectiveness of path-switching based on path properties in terms of path quality and path diversity (availability of alternate paths, low correlation of failure of alternate paths etc) over the actual topological diversity of the Internet. The results of the analysis establish that edge diversity through multihoming expose significant diversity in end-to-end Internet paths.…”
