Abstract:

There are two approaches to adaptive routing protocols for wide-area store-and-forward networks: distancevector and link-state. Distance-vector algorithms use O(N \Theta e) storage at each node, whereas link-state algorithms use O(N 2), where N is the number of nodes in the network and e is the average degree of a node. The ARPANET started with a distance-vector algorithm (Distributed Bellman-Ford), but because of long--lived loops, changed to a link-state algorithm (SPF). We show, using a recently developed network simulator, MaRS, that a newly proposed distance-vector algorithm (ExBF) performs as well as SPF. This suggests that distance-vector algorithms are appropriate for very large wide-area networks.
