Abstract

Adaptive Multi-Path routing (AMP) is a new simple algorithm for dynamic traffic engineering within autonomous systems. In this paper, we describe an AMP variant which is related to the well-known Optimized Multi-Path (OMP) routing protocol. Whereas OMP requires global knowledge about the whole network in each node, the AMP algorithm is based on a backpressure concept which restricts the distribution of load information to a local scope, thus simplifying both signaling and load balancing mechanisms. The proposed algorithm is investigated using ns-2 simulations for a real medium-size network topologyand load scenarios by performing comparisons to several standard routing strategies.
