Network-Wide Load Balancing Routing With Performance Guarantees
Overview As wide-area network connectivity becomes commoditized, network service providers are offering premium services that generate higher revenues by supporting performance sensitive traffic. An emerging example is a virtual private network path with Quality of Service (QoS) guarantees, or QVPN. The main technical challenge in offering the QVPN service is how to allocate a physical route for each QVPN so as to maximize the total number of QVPNs that a given physical network infrastructure can support simultaneously. Here case is that the key to addressing this challenge is to maintain network-wide load balance when selecting QVPN routes. By ensuring that different parts of the network are evenly loaded, no single critical link will tend to become a bottleneck resource.
