Routing Techniques
Static routing
Routing
Dynamic routing
Static Routing: In static routing, for a given source, destinations
and routes are all predetermined. They are assigned during the
design of a network. For instance, node A can send message to node
D via 4,5, 3 . Node A can also send message to node D via 1, 2, 3.
However, node A cannot send message using the route
A 4 1 2 3 D

Advantage: easy to design and set-up cost is not high


Disadvantage: not very efficient, delay can be very long.
Dynamic Routing

Dynamic Routing: In dynamic routing, the routes are calculated


when they needed. The routes are not predetermined.
Advantages: more efficient, inherently more fault-tolerant.
Disadvantages: Set-up cost is high and it is fairly complex to design.
Network Topology: Physical & Logical

• The topology of a network defines how the nodes of a network


are connected.
• A network is defined by a physical topology and a logical topology.
• Physical topology defines how the nodes of the network are
physically connected .
• Logical topology dedicated connections between certain selected
source-destination pairs using the underlying physical topology.
• In order to have an efficient system, the logical topology should be
chosen such that either the average hop distance or the packet
delay or the maximum flow on any link must be minimal.
• Another important issue to select the logical topology is the
simplicity of the routing.

Physical and Logical topologies
• Node 1 can directly send information to node 2 and node 3 using
frequencies and w1 and w2,
• where as if node 1 wants to send message to node 4, it has to
multi-hop through either node 2 or node 3.
• For this reason, node 1 is directly logically connected to node 2
and node 3.
• Although, node 1 is not directly physically connected to node 2
and node 3.
• Node 1 is not directly logically connected to node 4.
• If node 1 node 1 communicates with node 4 via node 2, there will
be a wavelength conversion from w1 to w3 at node 2.

A bus network topology
Use: This topology is useful
in LANs. It does not rely on
C1 C2 C3 central host.This network can
still function if one of the
computers malfunctions.
Other advantages: easy to
wire, quick response, less
C6 expensive
C5 C4

Problem: The main disadvantage is bad connection to


the cable can bring down the entire network. Another
problem: collision occurs when 2 nodes send
messages simultaneously.
Bus Network
• In bus network, all stations are attached to a single cable.
• When a station sends a message, it is broadcast down on the cable
in both directions. Terminators at the end of the cable prevent the
signal from reflecting back to the sender.
• All stations on the cable constantly monitor for messages meant to
them. When a station detects a message meant for it, it reads the
message from the cable and the other stations will ignore it.
• Since all stations are sharing the same cable, some form of control
is needed to make sure which station will transmit when,
otherwise there will be a collision.
• Advantages: Easy to wire, quick response, less expensive, and if
one station dies, it has no effect on the total network.
• Disadvantage: However bad connection to the cable can short it
and bring down the entire network
A Hub/Tree Network

A Hub / Tree Network


Tree Network
• In hub or tree network, the wires that are used to connect different
nodes are collapsed into a central unit, called hub.
• Hub does not perform switching function.
• It consists of repeaters that retransmitted all the signals from
nodes to all other nodes in the same way.
• The multipoint nature of tree topology gives rise to several
problems.
• The access control is fairly difficult to determine the time slot for
each node. Another problem with multipoint is signal balancing.
• When two device exchange data over a link, the signal strength of
the transmitter should be adjusted.
• If it is low, after attenuation, it might not meet the minimum
signal strength requirement of the transmitter and minimum signal
to noise ratio. If it is very high, it can overload the circuitry of the
transmitter resulting in harmonics and other spurious signals.
A ring network topology
Use: This topology is useful
C1
in LANs. It does not rely on
central host.This network can
C6 C2 still function if one of the
computers malfunctions.

Problems:
C 3 The connecting wire, cable,
C5
or optical fiber forms a closed
loop. Data are passed along the
C4
ring from one computer to
another.
Ring Network
• Ring network consists of nodes that are joined by point-to-point
connection to form a closed loop or ring.
• The transmitted signal is regenerated at each node.
• It is a shared-access network and it has the capability of
broadcasting messages.
• It needs some form of access control to determine which node
will transmit when.
Advantages
• The most important advantage of this network is its point-to-
point connections.
• The electronics and maintenance of point-to-point links are
much simpler than multi cast links.
Ring Network
• The structure of this network is very simple and it is very easy to
insert and delete any number of nodes.
• For this reason, ring network is easily scalable and highly
modular.
• Fault isolation and recovery are much simpler than tree.
Disadvantages:
• The disadvantage is it offers only two alternate routes and
thereby it can manage only a single fault.
• Another important drawback of ring network is its large
diameter.
• If diameter of a network is high, the number of edges involved
in each communication will also be very high resulting in high
signal attenuation and network blocking probability.
A star network topology
Use: This topology is
C1
useful for applications
where processing must
C6 C2 be centralized and some
can be performed locally.
Host
CPU
Problems:
C3 All communication pass
C5
through the central computer.
The communications in the
C4
network will stop if the host
computer stops functioning.
Star Network
• In star network, each station is connected via a point-to-point link
to a central point.
• This central point is called hub, multi port repeater, or
concentrator.
• The central point may be “passive”, “active”, or “intelligent”.
• A passive hub simply connects the arms of a star, no signal
regeneration is performed.
• An active hub is like a passive hub, except that it regenerates
signals.
• Intelligent hubs not only regenerate signals but also perform
activities such as intelligent path selection and network
management.
Star Network
Advantage:
The main advantage of the star architecture over the bus is
its small excess loss, since in case of n-user star the excess
loss increases logarithmically with n, while in case of n-
user bus it increases linearly with n.

Disadvantage:
Since all information in a star network goes through a
central point, stars are easy to troubleshoot.

Fault-tolerant network

• reliable operation in faulty networks.


• alternate ways of communication.
• faults in optical networks
channel fault
link fault
node fault
Channel fault

• Why and when it occurs?


A channel fault occurs when a single wavelength channel on a link
between two nodes has failed due to the failure of the laser or
receiver for that wavelength channel, or due to cable disconnections.

• How to manage?
Thus fault can be managed by routing the traffic to a spare channel
on the same physical link and bypassing the faulty channel.
Link fault
• Why and when it occurs?
A link fault occurs due to fiber cut or due to noise
(particularly those running over long distance).

• How to manage?
It can be managed by using a bundle of protection fibers in
addition to the working fiber. The performance or survivability
is limited by the number of links in each bundle.
Another way of solving this problem is by providing a
“loopback” mechanism within each node on the same
working fiber.
Node fault
• Why and when it occurs?
A node fault occurs due to power outages or catastrophic failure
in an entire WADM node failure.

• How to handle?
It is complicated to handle since when this fault occurs, a part of
the conversion capability of the network as a whole is lost and
leaves an open circuit and can result in deadlock of all routing
networks.
One solution is to introduce redundancy in the internal
connections of the networks rather than in the connections of
the nodes. In case of multiple failures, the solution is a “firewall”
that can prevent deadlock spreading in the network. This can be
achieved by a simple device that tomes out if a packet passing
through it stay longer than a specified time.
