I will address the comments/questions from Fred Baker and the person who explained that MPRs can be selected in zero time :-) and will then comment on the simulations presented by Stan. First I want to make an observation. The people who favor OSPF-MDR are the ones who took the time to understand it well. Therefore, it is important for people to read the OSPF-MDR draft: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ogier-manet-ospf-extension-05.txt For an overview, here is a presentation of OSPF-MDR similar to the one Phil presented at the OSPF session: http://home.earthlink.net/~ogier/mdr_nov05.ppt Fred Baker mentioned a possible drawback of the fact that MDRs and Backup MDRs are a natural generalization of the DR and Backup DR of an OSPF broadcast network. He said that a problem can occur if an obstacle separates the DR and Backup DR. Actually, in a fully connected network (similar to a broadcast network), OSPF-MDR actually selects one MDR and *two* Backup MDRs. This is necessary to ensure that the backbone consisting of (Backup) MDRs is biconnected. As a result, if the link between the MDR and first Backup MDR is broken, the second Backup MDR will forward LSAs between these two routers. This is no accident - it is the reason for having a biconnected backbone. At first, I was worried that a second Backup MDR was selected, since OSPF does not do this, but I am happy that this actually solves a known drawback of OSPF that Fred Baker mentioned. Next, I will address the comment of the person who explained that MPRs can be selected in zero time. I think he means that any router can select itself as a Backup MPR (or overlapping relay) if it can cover any neighbors that are not covered by the sending neighbor. Since all neighbors must be considered, I think this takes O(n) time, not zero time, where n is the number of neighbors. In OSPF-MDR, Backup MDRs are preselected for the same purpose as Backup MPRs (in case a primary relay fails to forward the LSA). (Backup) MDRs are selected in O(n^2) time, same as MPRs. One may ask the following: Why not allow any router to be a Backup MDR, similar to the Overlapping Relay solution which allows any router to be a Backup MPR? I thought about this, but excluded it partly because it is not scalable (explained below). Also, it not necessary, since it turns out that biconnected redundancy is sufficient for good performance. The reason it is not scalable is because there can be a large number of routers that are potential Backup MPRs. If this number is large enough, then it is possible for several of these routers to forward the LSA at approximately the same time. Regarding Stan's simulations comparing Smart Peering with MPRs (which provides a 1-connected adjacency graph), with a version of OSPF-MDR that provides a biconnected adjacency graph, my first comment (as you might guess) is that it is not fair to compare an algorithm that provides a 1-connected adjacency graph with one that provides a biconnected adjacency graph. For a fair comparison, the *uniconnected* option of OSPF-MDR should be used. (As I was listening to the session, I was frustated that nobody mentioned this!) The rest of this message is part of a message that I sent to the wireless design team this morning. I ran MDR with 1-connected adjacencies on the 50 node scenario that Cisco used with radio rage = 200 and velocity = 16. (Cisco used biconnected adjacencies for MDR, which was not a fair comparison.) The results are shown below for three choices of LSAFullness: 0 for Minimum LSAs, 2 for MDR Full LSAs, and 3 for Full LSAs. The resulting delivery ratios were .834, .839, and .849 for MDR, compared to .833 for MPRs in the same scenario, so delivery ratio is comparable. The resulting UDP forwards were 6265, 6255, and 5487 for MDR, compared to 10627 for MPRs, so much longer paths were obtained with MPRs. The resulting total overheads were 177.59, 257.33, and 500.61 (the last one is for Full LSAs) compared to 457.24 for MPRs. Although MDR with Full LSAs resulted in more overhead than MPRs, the other two choices of LSAs performed better than MPRs in all of the above metrics. The most notable result is the very long paths produced by MPRs, which is probably caused by a bug. Another point is that Cisco considered very sparse networks (e.g., radio range = 100m), which frequently partition. Such networks necessarily have a very low delivery ratio (e.g., 38%) due to partitions, so I am not sure how important such scenarios are to us. Additional comments and questions are welcome.

Or the Quagga list for Quagga, obviously ;). See http://lists.quagga.net. FWIW, there are other OSPF implementations running on Linux and other Unix platforms, see: XORP: http://www.xorp.org/ Bird: http://bird.network.cz/ The OSPF implementation in XORP is derived from Moy's implementation, IIRC/TTBOMK/etc. Not quite Linux, but the OpenBSD people are working on their own OSPF implementation, OpenOSPFd - no formal release yet.

Comments made at a WG session can be misleading, and there is often not enough time at the meeting to present opposing viewpoints. I am posting this message for this reason, and to help people understand OSPF-MDR better. I am posting this to both the OSPF and MANET lists. (There is some overlap with my previous post to the OSPF list, but I tried to give fewer opinions and more supporting facts this time.) > OSPF WG IETF 64 Minutes > Scribes: Padma Pillay-Esnault and Acee (snip) > - MANET Extension of OSPF Using CDS Flooding (Refer to presentation) > Phil Spagnolo > Fred Baker: What is inherently broadcast about a MANET? Frame relay is a > prime example of a network that was initially incorrectly modeled in > OSPF. > Tom: No optimizations in MDR that are specific to broadcast. > Broadcast capabilities will be exploited if available. I also recall that Fred Baker mentioned that OSPF has a problem when the DR and Backup DR are separated by an obstacle. This may be true for (unmodified) OSPF, but OSPF-MDR is an extension of OSPF that has been shown to perform well in MANETs, so this comment does not apply to OSPF-MDR. In a fully connected MANET, OSPF-MDR does closely resemble OSPF in a broadcast network, since both protocols will select the same two routers as DR/MDR and Backup DR/MDR, and each adjacency has a DR/MDR or Backup DR/MDR as one of its endpoints. In this sense, OSPF-MDR is a generalization of OSPF, i.e., an OSPF broadcast network can be considered a special case of a MANET. But even in a fully connected MANET, there are a few differences to make OSPF-MDR more robust (e.g., it selects a 2nd Backup MDR to provide a biconnected backbone). > Alvaro: MDRs favor adjacency reduction. However, more neighbors requires > more time for MDR selection during which time flooding will not be > done. In contrast, MPRs have built-in redundancy during transients. The above statement is miseading. First of all, the difference that Alvaro is referring to is a design choice that can be applied to *either* MDRs or MPRs, i.e., the issue does not favor one core approach over the other. In Cisco's solution (draft-chandra-ospf-manet-ext-03) any neighbor of a router that floods an LSA can potentially forward the LSA after PushbackInterval). (Such neighbors are called non-active overlapping relays or Backup MPRs.) A similar mechanism could be used in OSPF-MDR, so that any router could act as a Backup MDR and thus forward a flooded LSA. SO THIS TECHNIQUE CAN BE USED WITH *EITHER* APPROACH. The problem with this technique (in both approaches) is that in a very dense network, there will be a very large number of such Backup MPRs/MDRs, and even with jitter, a certain fraction of these will forward the LSA - so the number of neighbors that forward a given LSA will be proportional to the node degree - as a result, the flooding overhead is no longer linear in the number of nodes and the protocol is no longer scalable. One might argue that we don't need to support more than about 50 neighbors, but as a design principle I prefer to maintain scalability and ensure that the overhead is (approximately) linear in the number of nodes. The way this is done in OSPF-MDR is to select MDRs and Backup MDRs, to form a biconnected backbone that is used both for flooding and for defining adjacencies (same as OSPF). This is done in O(d^2) time, just as MPRs (active overlapping relays) are selected in O(d^2) time, where d is node degree. The criticism seems to be that flooding will not be done if two (Backup) MDRs fail at the same time, until a new MDR is selected. 1. First of all, the probability of this happening is small, and in fact it usually takes the failure of more than two (Backup) MDRs to partition the biconnected backbone (because MDRs are selected based on local information, so there is usually more than biconnected redundancy). I.e., the event that the backbone becomes partitioned is a rare event. 2. Second, in the rare event that the backbone becomes partitioned, a new MDR will be selected within a few seconds, based on 2-hop information from Hellos. How detrimental is it to experience a few seconds delay (in flooding LSAs) on rare occasions? The important question is, whether or not you believe the above claims, how does OSPF-MDR perform in mobile networks? So far, it seems to perform as well as MPRs in terms of delivery ratio. If there is a problem with robustness, it should show up in the delivery ratio. And as I mentioned, if necessary, the technique of allowing any router to be a Backup MDR *could* be employed. But I don't think it will be necessary or beneficial. > Tom: Both algorithms have comparable costs with respect to selection. > > - High Mobility Scenarios with MPRs and MDRs (Refer to presentations) > Stan Ratliff Here, I will just summarize my comments regarding Stan's simulation results that I previously posted on the OSPF list. First of all, Stan compared MPRs with Smart Peering, which creates a 1-connected adjacency graph, to the *biconnected* version of OSPF-MDR, which is not a fair comparison. For fairness, it should be compared to the 1-connected version of OSPF-MDR. Second, the routes obtained with Smart Peering were much longer than the ones obtained with OSPF-MDR, which should not be the case since both methods use full LSAs and thus should produce min-hop paths. This and other anomalies in the simulation statistics indicate that there is probably a bug. Also, the simulations emphasized sparse networks - I think that performance should also be compared in dense networks. Anyway, I'm sure that future simulations will provide a fair comparison.

We (chairs/design team) decide to open up the debate to the entire OSPF and MANET WGs. The discussions were to be take place on the OSPF WG list. However, after the Vancouver IETF, many felt a separate focused list would be more appropriate. Toward this purpose, I have created ospf-manet@ietf.org. https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ospf-manet Please subscribe if you are interested in this participating in or following this discussion. Tom's IETF presentation provides a starting point as well as some useful pointers. http://www3.ietf.org/proceedings/05nov/slides/ospf-2/sld1.htm Also see the following for recent work presented at IETF 64: http://www3.ietf.org/proceedings/05nov/slides/ospf-3/sld1.htm http://www3.ietf.org/proceedings/05nov/slides/ospf-4/sld1.htm Note there is a slight posting delay (this is common for IETF.org hosted lists - the OSPF WG list is hosted externally and doesn't suffer from delays).

Replies **only** to ospf-manet@ietf.org. Now that we have established a list for this activity, I would like to suggest that the first order of business should be to agree upon a fair process whereby the OSPF WG is in a position to move forward on an OSPF MANET design by the March meeting. =20 A first step should be to agree upon what we are trying to decide. I believe that we are trying to decide upon whether the basis for efficient flooding and topology control for OSPF MANET should be a source-independent connected dominating set (specifically, Ogier's MDR proposal) or a source-dependent connected dominating set (specifically, Overlapping Relays with Smart Peering). =20 I also believe that, unless it is proven that the two current designs have significant performance differences in different operating environments, we are trying to downselect to one OSPF MANET design, not to define the operating regions most applicable to two separate designs. A second step should be to agree on evaluation criteria and scenarios, to address the comments at the WG meeting that the previously used scenarios were too narrow. This should be agreed upon within the next month or so, based on list discussion. The scenarios/criteria need to be feasible to achieve in the timeframe of this evaluation. A third step should be to allow time for the interested parties to study the proposed approaches in light of the above criteria. Simulation or implementation experiments can be used to support arguments, but are not required in any or all cases. I will take the action item to integrate the new Cisco code and post a new evaluation software release. A fourth step is to have any interested party submit a short position draft on the issue at hand. The position draft should be page limited (e.g., 10 pages) so that it is more accessible to a wider WG review, although it may reference additional supporting material. It would be recommended but not required that any simulation or implementation scripts used to justify the arguments be made available at this time as well (private simulation results should probably be treated with less confidence by the WG). Drafts should not be allowed later than the I-D cutoff date, and the publishing of such a draft should be required to make a formal presentation on this topic at the Dallas meeting.=20 The fifth step is to have discussion on the list between the I-D cutoff and the meeting, and presentations and discussions at the Dallas meeting.

This presupposes emulations are "the" way to evaulate the proposals. In fact, I believe we need to do more traditional work here, such as examining pathological cases. For instance: o Is there a point in the mobility graph where the protocol mechanism simply won't converge when real rachability should be available in the network? o Is there a specific event that will cause a long outage in reachability when physical reachability still exists? o How much change to existing code do the proposed mechanisms cause? One of the reasons we're using OSPF here is to reuse as much of a known working protocol as possible in a different environment. If the proposed changes change entire sections of the OSPF code (1,000 lines sounds trivial, until you realize that most OSPF implementations are probably only 12,000 lines of code, and 1/12th doesn't sound so trivial any longer), then we don't want to mess with it--better to use a new protocol. o How extensible, into the future, are the proposed changes? Are they currently "at the end of the line," as optimal as they will ever get, or are there other areas of exploration to be done? If one mechanism has optimized all it can, and another shows similar improvements, but has many more possible optimizations, it's better to go with one that can be further optimized. These are the sorts of things we normally look at when examining a protocol change, rather than basing the change simply on simulation results. We all realize implementations have a huge impact on performance (you can implement SPF as n^2, or n(log n), for instance), and that you learn how to improve performance over time. Basing an initial modification based on simple performance in a simulator is the wrong way to work at the problem. Imagine the IETF choosing between IS-IS and OSPF based on simulation work (!). Simulations are interesting, but they don't indicate much of anything, until you get to simulating on real routers, and possibly even real radios (although I'm not so certain about that part, for various reasons). :-) Russ - -- riw@cisco.com CCIE <>< Grace Alone -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP Desktop 9.0.3 (Build 2932) iQA/AwUBQ42l4xEdu7FIVPTkEQIviQCfUjtRIXA86u/zNk3PIymj4AWWEDoAnRv2 im5Q5RNTXluAj2My26N50mwV =0gOk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From owner-ospf@PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM Wed Nov 30 12:09:12 2005 Received: from odin.ietf.org ([132.151.1.176] helo=ietf.org) by megatron.ietf.org with esmtp (Exim 4.32) id 1EhVSC-0006zn-Kp for ospf-archive@megatron.ietf.org; Wed, 30 Nov 2005 12:09:12 -0500 Received: from wildebeest.ease.lsoft.com (wildebeest.ease.lsoft.com [209.119.0.21]) by ietf.org (8.9.1a/8.9.1a) with ESMTP id MAA11612 for ; Wed, 30 Nov 2005 12:08:26 -0500 (EST) Received: from PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM (lists.state.gov) by wildebeest.ease.lsoft.com (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <1.00003D44@wildebeest.ease.lsoft.com>; Wed, 30 Nov 2005 12:08:40 -0500 Received: by PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM (LISTSERV-TCP/IP release 14.4) with spool id 92205430 for OSPF@PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM; Wed, 30 Nov 2005 12:08:40 -0500 Received: from 207.69.195.62 by WALNUT.EASE.LSOFT.COM (SMTPL release 1.0m) with TCP; Wed, 30 Nov 2005 12:08:40 -0500 Received: from h-68-164-82-45.snvacaid.dynamic.covad.net ([68.164.82.45] helo=earthlink.net) by pop-altamira.atl.sa.earthlink.net with esmtp (Exim 3.36 #10) id 1EhVRg-0004uN-00 for OSPF@PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM; Wed, 30 Nov 2005 12:08:40 -0500 X-Sender: "Erblichs" <@smtp.earthlink.net> (Unverified) X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.72 [en]C-gatewaynet (Win98; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 References: <77F357662F8BFA4CA7074B0410171B6DC9E6E1@XCH-NW-5V1.nw.nos.boeing.com> <438DA5DB.1090807@cisco.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-2 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <438D9BD9.B6A0E2D5@earthlink.net> Date: Wed, 30 Nov 2005 04:32:25 -0800 Reply-To: Mailing List Sender: Mailing List From: Erblichs Subject: Re: [Ospf-manet] evaluation plan for OSPF MANET To: OSPF@PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM Precedence: list List-Help: , List-Unsubscribe: List-Subscribe: List-Owner: List-Archive: Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Interesting, I was thinking on the same lines. But specific items also come to mind. * negotiated initialization params to ease adj formations. Ex: LDP peer negotiation. Wouldn't this allow a peer to move easier from area to area with diff adj params? * freq (in the case of mobility) drops of pkts where a session / connection oriented scheme may be warranted. Wouldn't we want to handoff to TCP these cases for rexmits??? * a very low overhead of periodic summation of parts of the LSDB so a pull method vs a push method of updates can be implimneted. Would this work better in the cases where a small number of peers are mobile? And scale using multicast where a larger nbr of peers are mobile? The trusted mobile peers make the requests and if trusted, use targeted hellos or .. AND responses are either uc or mc depending on the nbr of outstanding reqs. Ex: a mix of IS-IS and partial OSPF LSDB chksums.. * a spec'ed method to deter transit routing. * ??a spec'ed method to inform that a host is reaching a point between two handoff routers and if possible defer delivery of its pkts?? * a spec'ed method to state that a transition from a 2G to a 3G type connection (or vice versa) is occuring? * etc.. So, I am assuming that we are talking about a really diff type of envs versus current OSPF envs. Yes, I ask alot, but this is a new env and done right could superseed our current envs. Mitchell Erblich ---------------------- Russ White wrote: > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > > A second step should be to agree on evaluation criteria and scenarios, > > to address the comments at the WG meeting that the previously used > > scenarios were too narrow.
