Outline • Overview of Inter-domain routing • Measuring inter-domain paths • BGP Measurement • BGP Modeling Our opinions should not be taken to represent AT&T policies
Internet • Loose cooperative effort of Internet Service Providers (ISPs) • E.g., AT&T, Sprint, UUNet, AOL • Best effort service • Connectedness • Anyone connected to the Internet can exchange traffic with anyone else connected to the Internet

Intra-domain routing • Run within a certain network infrastructure • Optimize routes taken between points within a network • Internal Gateway Protocols (IGPs) • Metrics based • OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) • RIP (Routing Information Protocol) • IS-IS (Intermediate System to Intermediate System)
Inter-domain routing • Run between networks • Provide full connectivity of entire Internet • External Gateway Protocol (EGP) • Policy based • BGP (Border Gateway Protocol)
Link state protocols • Examples: OSPF, IS-IS • Based on Dijkstra’s shortest path computation • Each router periodically floodsimmediate reachability information to other routers • Fast convergence • High communication and computation overhead • Not scalable for large networks • Requires periodic refreshes
Vectoring protocols • Distance vs. Path Vector • Distance: hop count (RIP) • Path: entire path (BGP) • Helps identify loops • Supports policy-based routing based on path • Minimal communication overhead • Takes longer to converge, i.e., in proportion to the maximum path length
Link state vs. vectoring Link state Vectoring IGP EGP BGP is a path vector protocol
Classful addressing • IPv4: 32 bits • Five classes of networks Improve scaling factor of routing in the Internet => classless
CIDR: Classless Inter-domain Routing (RFC1519) • No implicit mask based on the class of the network • Explicit masks passed in the routing protocol • Allow aggregation and hierarchical routing IP address: 12.70.0.0 Mask: 255.255.252.0 Address 00001100 00100110 00000000 00000000 00001100 00100110 00000000 00000000 Mask 11111111 11111111 11000000 00000000 11111111 11111111 11000000 00000000 Host identifier Network prefix CIDR representation: 12.70.0.0/22

Routing and forwarding • Routing • The decision process of choosing optimal path that is consistent with the administrative or technical policy • Forwarding • The act of receiving a packet, doing a lookup, and copying a packet to the next hop

Best route selection • Highest local preference • Shortest AS path • Lowest MED (Multi-Exit-Discriminator) • I-BGP < E-BGP • Lowest I-BGP cost to E-BGP egress • Tie breaking rules
Best route selection • Highest local preference • To enforce economical relationships between domains • Shortest AS path • Lowest MED (Multi-Exit-Discriminator) • I-BGP < E-BGP • Lowest I-BGP cost to E-BGP egress • Tie breaking rules
Best route selection • Highest local preference • Shortest AS path • Compare the quality of routes, assuming shorter AS-path length is better • Lowest MED (Multi-Exit-Discriminator) • I-BGP < E-BGP • Lowest I-BGP cost to E-BGP egress • Tie breaking rules
Best route selection • Highest local preference • Shortest AS path • Lowest MED (Multi-Exit-Discriminator) • To implement “cold potato” routing between neighboring domains • I-BGP < E-BGP • Lowest I-BGP cost to E-BGP egress • Tie breaking rules
Best route selection • Highest local preference • Shortest AS path • Lowest MED (Multi-Exit-Discriminator) • I-BGP < E-BGP • Prefer EBGP routes to IBGP routes • Lowest I-BGP cost to E-BGP egress • Tie breaking rules
Best route selection • Highest local preference • Shortest AS path • Lowest MED (Multi-Exit-Discriminator) • I-BGP < E-BGP • Lowest I-BGP cost to E-BGP egress • Prefer routes via the nearest IGP neighbor • To implement “hot potato” routing • Tie breaking rules
Best route selection • Highest local preference • Shortest AS path • Lowest MED (Multi-Exit-Discriminator) • I-BGP < E-BGP • Lowest I-BGP cost to E-BGP egress • Tie breaking rules • Router ID based: lowest router ID • Age based: oldest route
BGP route propagation • Not all possible routes propagate • Commercial relationships determine policies for • Route import • Route selection • Route export
Typical AS relationships • Provider-customer • customer pay money for transit • Peer-peer • typically exchange respective customers’ traffic for free • Siblings • Mutual transit agreement • Provide connectivity to the rest of the Internet for each other
AS relationships translate into BGP export rules • Export to a provider or a peer • Allowed: its routes and routes of its customers and siblings • Disallowed: routes learned from other providers or peers • Export to a customer or a sibling • Allowed: its routes, the routes of its customers and siblings, and routes learned from its providers and peers
Which AS paths are legal? • Valley-free: • After traversing a provider-customer or peer-peer edge, cannot traverse a customer-provider or peer-peer edge • Invalid path: >= 2 peer links, downhill-uphill, downhill-peer, peer-uphill
Example of valley-free paths [1 2 3], [1 2 6 3] are valley-free X X [1 4 3], [1 4 5 3] are not valley free
Inferring AS relationships • Identify the AS-level hierarchy of Internet • Not shortest path routing • Predict AS-level paths • Traffic engineering • Understand the Internet better • Correlate with and interpret BGP update • Identify BGP misconfigurations • E.g., errors in BGP export rules

Policy routing causes path inflation • End-to-end paths are significantly longer than necessary • Why? • Topology and routing policy choices within an ISP, between pairs of ISPs, and across the global Internet • Peering policies and interdomain routing lead to significant inflation • Interdomain path inflation is due to lack of BGP policy to provide convenient engineering of good paths across ISPs
Path inflation • Based on [Mahajan03] • Comparing actual Internet paths with hypothetical “direct” link
