As a demand of IP based packet service is increasing, transport network is evolving from circuit based transport technology using TDM to Ethernet based packet transport technology. In this paper we introduce packet transport network based on PBB-TE and MPLS-TP and propose a quality of service(QoS) management scheme to satisfy various user requirements in packet transport network. The proposed flow-based QoS management scheme guarantees that per-flow bandwidth control satisfies the predefined QoS requirement perfectly under bandwidth congestion condition by using perflow and per-PTL tunnel management. In order to evaluate the proposed scheme we defined flow and PTL tunnel per input frame and configured QoS parameters for each flow and PTL tunnel respectively. Simulation was done by using OPNET modeler 16.0 version.

A VPN is a private network that uses a public network to connect remote sites or users together. As its popularity grows, companies, organization and even the government turned to it as a means of extending their own networks. To setup a Virtual Private a proper IP VPN Architecture must first be selected. In this paper, the types of IP Virtual Private Network Architecture like the MPLS-Based, IPSec-Based and the SSL/TLS-Based are discussed and compared. The comparison may serve as a guide for selecting the proper IP Virtual Private Network Architecture that is suitable for the company's needs.

Ohba has suggested the Colored Thread Algorithm to prevent looped path when LSP is to be setup. M immediate node sends thread information such as color, hop count. ill, to downs1ream node via LDP message for the set-up of LSP. Afterward, decides that the looped path is formed when it receives a message with a same colored thread that was sent to downs1ream node, and it searches another path. If the message reaches to the egress node, then acknowledged message is sent to upstream node as reverse direction to the ingress node to set up loop-free path. For the algorithm, Ohva has defined three thread states as Null, Colored, Transparent. In this paper, the state of thread is extended to 5 states such as Extending, Merging, Stalling, Null, and Transparent. By the way, related FSM and TCB was redefined to make clear the ambiguity of thread states which causes faulty actions and to remove overhead. And, to improve performance, it limits to generate a thread in the state of Stalling.

The increasing demand for fast, flexible and guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) in core networks has caused to deploy MultiProtocol Label Switching (MPLS) and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) control plane. In GMPLS control plane, path computation and cooperation processes are one of the crucial element to maintain an acceptable level of service. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has proposed the Path Computation Element (PCE) architecture. The PCE is a dedicated network element devoted to path computation process and communications between Path Computation Clients (PCC) and PCEs is realized through the PCE Protocol (PCEP). This paper examines the PCE-based path computation architecture to include the design and implementation of PCEP. The functional modules including Finite State Machine (FSM) and related key design issues of each state are presented. In particular we also discuss internal/external protocol interfaces that efficiently control the communication channels.

In this paper, we proposed a high performance lookup controller for IP packet forwarding engine of ATM based label edge routers. The lookup controller is designed to provide services such as MPLS, VPN, ELL, and RT services as well as the best effort. For high speed searching for IP addresses, we employed a TCAM based hardware search device not using traditional algorithmic approaches. We also implement lookup control functions into FPGA for fast processing of packet header and lookup control. The proposed lookup controller is designed to support differenciated services for users and to process in pipelined mechanism for performance improvement. A two-step search scheme is also applied to perform lookup for the key combined with multi-field of packet header. We found that the proposed lookup controller provides the performance of about 16M packets per second through simulations.

In typical video streaming services such as MPEG encoded video, the transmission data sizes change depending on the frame types and the required bandwidth for QoS support also changes as time passes. Accordingly, in video streaming services using the Internet it could happen that the video services stop occasionally due to instantaneous deficiencies of the required bandwidth under unexpected congestion even if the highest priority is allocated to the service by network administration. In this paper, we investigate several methods for bandwidth allocation and traffic engineering to support MPEG video traffic and propose a new method to reduce the transmission delay and enhance the throughput, there by provisioning the QoS requirements. In the proposed scheme, LSPs are established based on temporal variation patterns of the Internet traffic and the CQ_LLQ policing scheme is applied for traffic shaping at the ingress routers. Finally we verified the performance of the proposed scheme via computer simulations using OPNET.

1968년 ARPA 네트워크의 출현 이후 음성 서비스 위주의 네트워크와 데이터 서비스 위주의 네트워크는 서로의 서비스를 수용하기 위해 노력해왔다. 음성 기반의 네트워크에서 데이터를 수용하기 위한 노력은 ‘꿈의 망’으로 그친 ISDN(Integrated Services Digital Network)으로 나타났고, 데이터 기반의 네트워크에서 음성을 수용하기 위한 노력은 보편적인 비연결형 데이터 서비스와는 대비되는 B-ISDN(Broadband-ISDN)으로 나타났다. 이후 다시 B-ISDN은 IP 서비스의 수용을 위해 ATM 교환기를 MPLS(Multi Protocol Label Switching) 교환기로 대치하여 보완하고 있지만, VoIP(Voice over IP)등 음성서비스의 제공에는 아직 완전한 해법이 제시되지 못하고 있다.(중략)

CSIX-L1 is the Common Switch Interface that defines a physical interface for transferring information between a traffic manager (Network Processor) and a switching fabric in ATM, IP, MPLS, Ethernet and data communication areas. In Tx, data to be transmitted is generated in Cframe which is the base information unit and in Rx, original data is extracted from the received Cframe. CSIX-L1 suppots the 32, 64, 96, and 123-bit interface and generates a variable length CFrame and Idle Cframe. Also CSIX-L1 appends Padding byte and supports 16-bit Vertical parity, CSIX-L1 is designed using Xilinx 4,1i. After functional and timing simulations are completed. CSIX-L1 module is downloaded in Xilinx FPGA XCV1000EHQ240C and verified. The synthesized CSIX module operates at 27MHz.

We propose and design a fully conversed Ethernet and TDM transport system to guarantee qualify of service for Ethernet packet. Developed convergence system can support not only L2 VPN service and premium multimedia service based on MPLS protocol but also TDM leased line service, simultaneously. Developed convergence system has the advantage of providing high reliability that realizes high-quality and real time communications due to assign QoS profile and guarantee bandwidth per channel consist of VCGs without affect adjacent channels. Evaluation for proposed system was successfully performed within the ling network.

In this paper, we present the functional architecture for the traffic engineering capable policy based network management system. In this paper, we also examine the traditional approach to network management, contrast it with the policy based approach. The architecture includes the traffic engineering facilities, especially MPLS traffic engineering functions, to provide maximum network resource utilization. The policy server should communicate with the traffic engineering server and network manager to enforce the network policy efficiently. The interfaces and interworking methods are described in this paper.
