“…It plays a vital role for DNS and CDN and services, but different issues have been noted, including the detection latency of IP anycast prefixes [20], AS-level anycast path inflation [21], and client-server mapping limitations that arise in CDN routing [2]. Several enhancements have been discussed focusing on either performance, see, e.g., [22,23], or security, e.g., to mitigate distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks [5]. It has been shown that anycast routing can achieve near-optimal response times and that it can be tailored to suit the QoS requirements of DiffServ networks [24], but these techniques often require knowledge about the global network state (i.e., router loads) [25,26].…”
