Abstract
For the carriers and Internet service providers (ISPs) who build and operate large-scale networks, it is essential to have network scalability and stability. Border gateway protocols (BGPs) are used in carrier IP-VPNs and ISP networks, but the internal BGPs (iBGPs) that are used within autonomous systems have a problem in terms of scalability. To address this problem, route reflectors are being introduced in these networks. In this paper we report on the development of the FITELnet-R10, a route reflector that offers adequate scalability for large-scale networks, while providing high-speed performance.
