Dear NMRG and ANIMA people,
One of my students, Parsa Ghaderi, has explored the issue of discovering
the topology of a BRSKI-compliant domain. He has proposed two
solutions: a mostly distributed one, based on clustering, and a mostly
centralized one, based on using the Registrar to gather the topological
information and redistribute it.
He has also proposed a non-compliant centralized approach, where the
local topological information is added to the voucher request from the
Pledge to the Registrar. If the Pledge is accepted as a member of the
domain, the updated topology for the whole domain is then returned to
the Pledge, and distributed to the other accepted members of the domain.
The proposals have been implemented using Brian Carpenter's GRASP
prototype in Python, and run on a 10-node testbed.
A paper describing this work has been submitted to NOMS 2023. If anyone
would like a copy of the submission (or of the full thesis), please send
me an email.
I would like to thank Brian very much for the GRASP prototype, and for
the speed with which he responded to our bug reports.
Bill
