Cooperation of control and management plane for the dynamic provision of connectivity services on mpls networks

Tesis doctoral de Eduardo Grampin Castro

Next generation networks multimedia services are creating a revolution in everyday communications. New applications are emerging continuously, demanding ever growing resources to transport networks. dynamic provisioning is needed to support such demands. multiprotocol label switching has embedded intelligence on the network, through a control plane that enables the integration of multiple layers for timely and optimal mapping of resources to demands. nevertheless, the path computation problem demand stringent processing resources of network device, which must be devoted to the transfer of information at terabit speeds. Thus, provisioning tools are needed to assist the network in these challenging tasks. this thesis proposes a synergistic, hybrid solution between the control and management plane for dynamic provisioning of connectivity services in multiprotocol label switching networks, and defines a practical operational traffic engineering strategy for service providers. The proposal introduces an architecture for connectivity provisioning, founded over a new network entity, the routing and management agent, capable of providing path computation features to the evolved network, with peering communications in both the management and control plane. the proposed architecture has been extensively tested in a simulated environment, whereas real testbed prototyping is under developement.
