1 Link State Routing Algorithm Use a routing protocol to collect the whole network topology Obtain destination reachability information as well as link weights/states Compute shortest paths using Dijkstra s algorithm from a node to all other nodes Construct routing tables that show the destination addresses and the next hop addresses Note that while Dijkstra s algorithm gives you end-to-end routes, the routing tables may only store the next hop address.

4 Link State Discussion Each node requires complete topology information. Link state Information must be flooded to all nodes. Guaranteed to converge. Each node must maintain a global database. Convergence of the algorithm is guaranteed.

Process IP Options IP Input Queue Network Interfaces (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 9 Routing Table Lookup For each IP packet, there is one routing table lookup. 1. Find matching host address 2. Find matching network address 3. Find default entry Routing table printout with netstat -rn Example: Destination Gateway Flags Refcnt Use Interface UGH emd UH 1 0 lo0 default UG 0 0 emd0 (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 10 5

6 Explanation of the printout Flags: U: route is up G: route is to a gateway (router); if flag is not set, destination is directly connected H: route is to a host, I.e., destination address is the complete host address; if flag is not set, route is to a network and destination address is netid or subnetid D: route created by redirect M: route modified by redirect Refcnt: reference count: number of active uses of each route; for each TCP connection passing through route, this is increased by 1 Use: number of packets sent on route Interface: local interface (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 11 Statically Setting IP Routing Tables There are several ways for setting IP routing tables without a routing protocol (=Static Routing) 1. Automatic creation of entry during initialization of a local interface (with ifconfig) 2. During bootstrap with route command 3. Via ICMP redirect messages 4. Via ICMP router advertisement/router discovery messages (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 12 6

7 Route Command Route commands are put in a system file that is read during system bootstrap System file is: /etc/rc2.d/s69inet in Solaris, /etc/netstart in FreeBSD. Example: default: destination sun: gateway or router 1: metric route add default sun 1 route add slip bsdi 1 (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 13 ICMP Redirect Based on routing data in host, it does an arp for router 1 and sends packet to router 1 When router 1 detects that an IP datagram should have gone to a different router, the router: forwards the IP datagram to the correct router sends an ICMP redirect message to the host Host uses ICMP message to update its routing table (1) IP datagram (3) ICMP Redirect Router 1 (2) IP datagram Router 2 (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 14 7

8 ICMP Router Solicitation ICMP Router Advertisement Specified in RFC 1256 (1991) After bootstrapping a host broadcasts an ICMP router solicitation message. In response, routers send an ICMP router advertisement message Also, routers periodically broadcast ICMP router advertisement (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 15 Dynamic IP Routing Protocols In Unix systems, the dynamic setting of routing tables is done by the routed or gated daemons The routing daemons execute the following intradomain and interdomain routing protocols Daemon Hello RIP OSPF EGP BGP rrouted intradomain V1 interdomain Gated (Version 3) Yes V1 V2 V2 Yes V2, V3 (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 16 8

9 RIP - Routing Information Protocol A simple intradomain protocol Straightforward implementation of Distance Vector Routing Each router advertises its minimum distances to destinations every 30 seconds (or whenever its routing table changes) RIP always uses the hop-count as link metric. Maximum hop count is 15, with 16 equal to. Routes timeout after 3 minutes if they are not updated. Route metric is set to (16) and marked for deletion (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 17 RIP Packet Format IP header UDP header RIP Message 1: request 2: reply 3, 4: unused 5: poll 6: poll entry addr. family: 2 for IP 20 bytes long Command (1-6) Version (1) 32-bit address Unused (Set to ) Set to address family Set to Unused (Set to ) metric (1-16) IP address for which a route is requested Up to 24 more routes (each 20 bytes) (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 18 9

10 Routing with RIP This is the operation of RIP in routed. Dedicated port for RIP is UDP port 520. Initialization: Broadcast a request packet (command = 1, metric=16; address family=0, metric=16) on the interfaces requesting current routing tables from routers. Request received: Routers that receive above request send their entire routing table. Response received: Update the routing table (see distance vector algorithm). Regular routing updates: Every 30 seconds, send all or part of the routing tables to every neighbor. Triggered Updates: Whenever the metric for a route changes, send data that has changed. (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 19 RIPv2 IP header UDP header RIPv2 Message Process ID of routing daemon Command Version (1-6) (=2) address family routing domain route tag Support of EGP and BGP 32-bit address Subnet Mask (32 bits) Next-Hop IP address (32 bits) Metric (1-16) Subnet Mask of IP address (RIP version 1 is not aware of subnet masks) Identifies next hop; value of 0 means packets Identifies next hop: value of 0 means packets should be should be sent to node sending this RIP message sent to node sending this RIP message Up to 24 more routes (each 20 bytes) The next-hop IP address is where packets to that dest. IP address should be sent; a value of 0 means packets should be sent to the router sending this RIP message (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 20 10

11 OSPF OSPF = Open Shortest Path First RFC 1247 from 1991 Alternative solution to RIP as interior gateway protocol OSPF is a link state protocol, i.e., each node has complete topology information OSPF messages are sent directly in IP (and not as payload of UDP packets) Hellos and Link State Advertisements (LSAs) To get the topology of the network Shortest-path algorithm, e.g., Dijkstra s to precompute routing tables. (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 21 Features of OSPF Provides authentication of routing messages Enables load balancing by allowing traffic to be split evenly across routes with equal cost Supports subnetting Supports multicasting (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 22 11

12 BGP BGP = Border Gateway Protocol Currently in version 4 Note: In the context of BGP, a gateway is nothing else but an IP router that connects autonomous systems. Interdomain routing protocol for routing between autonomous systems Uses TCP to send routing messages BGP is a distance vector protocol, but unlike in RIP, routing messages in BGP contain complete routes. Network administrators can specify routing policies (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 23 BGP BGP s goal is to find any path (not an optimal one). Since the internals of the AS are never revealed, finding an optimal path is not feasible. For each autonomous system (AS), BGP distinguishes: local traffic = traffic with source or destination in AS transit traffic = traffic that passes through the AS Stub AS = has connection to only one AS, only carry local traffic Multihomed AS = has connection to >1 AS, but does not carry transit traffic Transit AS = has connection to >1 AS and carries transit traffic (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 24 12

14 Exercise solution Routing table at router R1 soon after reboot Destination Gateway Flags RIP Metric U U U 1 Table created by route commands executed during boot-up procedure - directly-connected interfaces have a route command metric of 0 (pg. 116) but a RIP metric of 1 (pg. 131) See page 116- it states that the metric is 0 if the G flag is not set, which means a direct route. The gateway column has the IP address of the outgoing interface. (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 27 Exercise solution contd.

15 Exercise solution contd. RIP messages sent. As per fig on page 131 of your text book each router advertises routes to each subnet on all other subnets with a hop count of 1. Thus, each router listens to the broadcasts about the other router s subnets. Updated routing tables are shown on the next two slides. (originals by Jörg Liebeherr) 29 Exercise solution contd.
