On-Line Network Reachability Analysis Using Forward Information Base Emulation
May 14-May 16
ISBN: 978-0-7695-3131-1
This paper presents a new approach of routing protocol management as a first step towards the conception of on-line network reachability analysis. Each individual router has an FIB (Forwarding Information Base), which is a table containing the information required to forward IP packets, which is used for packet delivery. At a minimum, FIB contains the interface identifier and the next hop information for each reachable destination. If it is possible to emulate the FIBs of on-line routers in service, network reachability could be simulated in real time. ‘A destination is reachable’ indicates that the FIB lookup from its source to the destination is successful. This simulation will make it unnecessary to model FIBs and a lookup mechanism, or to analyze the routing information filtering. In this paper, a mean of FIB emulation and network reachability simulation through the analysis of routing information are shown. This method is valuable, both for network users and operators.
