In this way, the confederation preserves next hop, metric, and local preference information. To the outside world, the confederation appears to be a single AS. With this solution, iBGP transit AS problems can be resolved as iBGP requires a full mesh between all BGP routers: large number of TCP sessions and unnecessary duplication of routing ...
The Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP) is an extension of the ATM ARP routing mechanism [1] that is sometimes used to improve the efficiency of routing computer network traffic over a non-broadcast, multiple access (NBMA) network. [2] It is defined in IETF RFC 2332, [3] and further described in RFC 2333. [4]
A routing table usually consists of a list of possible destination networks or IP addresses for which the next hop is known. By only storing next-hop information, next-hop routing or next-hop forwarding reduces the size of routing tables. A given gateway only knows one step along the path, not the complete path to a destination. If no next hop ...
Multi-path routing can be used in conjunction with most routing protocols because it is a per-hop local decision made independently at each router. It can substantially increase bandwidth by load-balancing traffic over multiple paths; however, there may be significant problems in deploying it in practice.
RIPng (RIP next generation) is an extension of RIPv2 for support of IPv6, the next generation Internet Protocol. [12] The main differences between RIPv2 and RIPng are: Support of IPv6 networking. While RIPv2 supports RIPv1 updates authentication, RIPng does not. IPv6 routers were, at the time, supposed to use IPsec for authentication. [citation ...
A key characteristic is the presence of multiple-hop links and using intermediate nodes to relay packets for others. Multi-hop routing (or multihop routing) is a type of communication in radio networks in which network coverage area is larger than radio range of single nodes. Therefore, to reach some destination a node can use other nodes as ...
A wireless ad hoc network [1] (WANET) or mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a decentralized type of wireless network.The network is ad hoc because it does not rely on a pre-existing infrastructure, such as routers or wireless access points.
In computer networking, per-hop behaviour (PHB) is a term used in differentiated services (DiffServ) or Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS). It defines the policy and priority applied to a packet when traversing a hop (such as a router ) in a DiffServ network.
