Load balancing of communication channels with the use of routing protocols

Franciszek Grabowski, Marek Bolanowski, Andrzej Paszkiewicz

Abstract


In the article the authors propose a method for load-balancing of network resources forthe case which uses a routing protocols. In the first part of the article the authors present currentlyused algorithms for load balancing and possibilities of their modification. Through the introductionof additional hardware components for each node: the agent and the probe; it is possible to monitorand control the current system performance. The whole analyzed network is treated as a complexsystem. This allows to eliminate overloading of route nodes (through ongoing analysis of the optimaloperating point for a given node). Load balancing can be achieved using a modified mechanism ofECMP. The proposed approach allows for dynamic adjustment of load to network resources and thuseffectively to balance network traffic.
