| ViAggre: Making Routers Last Longer! (2009) | |||||||||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||||||||
| This paper presents ViAggre (Virtual Aggregation), a “configuration-only ” approach to shrinking the routing table on routers. ViAggre applies to legacy routers and can be adopted independently and autonomously by any ISP. ViAggre is effectively a scalability technique that allows an ISP to modify its internal routing such that individual routers in the ISP’s network only maintain a part of the global routing table. We find that ViAggre can shrink the routing table on routers by more than an order of magnitude while imposing negligible traffic stretch. 1 | |||||||||||||||
