Embodiment Construction

[0019] figure 1 is a block diagram illustrating an example network system 2 in which network devices provide class-based traffic engineering in an Internet Protocol (IP) network in accordance with one or more aspects of the techniques described in this disclosure. exist figure 1 In an example, network 14 may include network devices, such as routers 12A-12F (collectively "routers 12"), to connect between one or more links (e.g., links 18A-18H (collectively "links 18") )) to establish one or more restricted paths.

[0020] In some examples, network 14 may be a service provider network. For example, network 14 may represent one or more networks owned and operated by a service provider (typically a private entity) that provide one or more services to customer networks 6A-6B (collectively "customer networks 6"). ) of customer or user consumption. In this case, network 14 is typically a Layer 3 (L3) packet-switched network that provides L3 connectivity between a public network (...

Abstract

The invention relates to class-based traffic engineering in IP network. Techniques are described for class-based traffic engineering in an IP network. For example, routers of an IP network may establish one or more constrained traffic engineered paths using a link-state protocol (e.g., IGP) without using signaling protocols, such as RSVP or SPRING, or encapsulating packets over MPLS. For example,an egress router of the IP network may receive a capability message specifying the capability of routers to compute a constrained path to the egress router, wherein the capability message comprises path computation information including an identifier of a path computation algorithm to be used by the one or more of the plurality of network devices to reach the egress network device. The egress router may advertise a reachability message including a destination IP prefix and the identifier of the path computation algorithm to cause routers in the IP network to compute the constrained path to reach the egress router.

Description

[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 864,851, filed June 21, 2019, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0002] The present disclosure relates to computer networks, and more particularly, to engineering traffic within computer networks. Background technique [0003] A computer network is a collection of interconnected computing devices that exchange data and share resources. In a packet-based network (eg, the Internet), computing devices communicate data by dividing the data into small chunks called packets, which are individually routed through the network from a source device to a destination device. The destination device extracts the data from the packets and assembles the data into its original form. [0004] Certain devices in the network, called routers, use routing protocols to exchange and accumulate topological information describing the network. This allows the rou...
