A scalable model for interbandwidth broker resource reservation and provisioning
Özet
As the Internet evolves into global communication and commercial infrastructure, the need for quality-of-services (QoSs) in the Internet becomes more and more important. With a bandwidth broker (BB) support in each administrative domain, differentiated services (Diffserv) is seen as a key technology for achieving QoS guarantees in a scalable, efficient, and deployable manner in the Internet. In this paper, we present a scalable model for inter-BB resource reservation and provisioning. Our BB uses centralized network state maintenance and pipe-based intradomain resource management schemes that significantly reduce admission control time and minimize scalability problems present in prior research. For inter-BB communication, we design and implement a BB resource reservation and provisioning protocol (BBRP). BBRP performs destination-based aggregated resource reservation based on bilateral service level agreements (SLAs) between peer-BBs. BBRP significantly reduces the BB and border routers state scalability problem by maintaining reservation state based only on destination region. It minimizes inter-BB signaling scalability by using aggregated type resource reservation and provisioning. Both analytical and experimental results verify the BBRP achievements. Index Terms-Bandwidth broker (BB), BB signaling, domain, differentiated services (Diffserv), interdomain resource management, quality-of-service (QoS), scalability.
