Fast Accurate Computation of LargeScale IP Traffic Matrices From Link Loads
Overview A matrix giving the traffic volumes between origin and destination in a network has tremendously potential utility for network capacity planning and management. Unfortunately, traffic matrices are generally unavailable in large operational IP networks. On the other hand, link load measurements are readily available in IP networks. This paper proposes a new method for practical and rapid inference of traffic matrices in IP networks from link load measurements, augmented by readily available network and routing configuration information. The paper applies and validates the method by computing backbone router to backbone-router traffic matrices on a large operational tier-1 IP network - a problem an order of magnitude larger than any other comparable method has tackled.
