17 0RUH$SSOLFDWLRQV Resource Discovery Multicast may be used (instead of broadcast) to transmit to group members on the same LAN. Multicast may be used for resource discovery within a specific scope using the TTL field in the IP header. Ahmed Helmy - USC 17

20 0XOWLFDVW6FRSH&RQWURO Administratively-Scoped Addresses RFC 1112 uses address range the rest of the Internet an administrative domain address boundary set on interfaces to these links Ahmed Helmy - USC 20

21 7UDQVPLVVLRQDQG'HOLYHU\RI 0XOWLFDVW'DWDJUDPV Over the same (LAN): The source addresses the IP packet to the multicast group The network interface card maps the Class D address to the corresponding IEEE-802 multicast address Receivers notify their IP layer to receive datagrams addressed to the group. Key issue is addressing & filtration Ahmed Helmy - USC 21

22 Over different subnets: Routers implement a multicast routing protocol that constructs the multicast delivery trees and supports multicast data packet forwarding. Routers implement a group membership protocol to learn about the existence of group members on directly attached subnets. Hosts implement the group membership protocol that provides the IP-multicast host model Ahmed Helmy - USC 22

23 $GGUHVVLQJ Types of IP addresses: Unicast: used to transmit packets to one destination. Broadcast: used to send datagrams to entire subnet. Multicast: used to deliver datagrams to a set of hosts (members of a multicast group) in various scattered subnets. Ahmed Helmy - USC 23

24 IP-Multicast is a best-effort service. Reliable/ordered delivery are not guaranteed. Reliability may be provided by upper-layer protocols (e.g., reliable multicast protocols). IP-Multicast packets include a "group address" (Class D) in the Destination field of the IP header. Ahmed Helmy - USC 24

25 0XOWLFDVW$GGUHVVLQJ An IP multicast group is identified by a Class D address. Multicast group addresses range from ( ) to ( ). Ahmed Helmy - USC 25

26 The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) registers IP multicast groups. The block of multicast addresses ranging from ( ) to ( ) is reserved for local LAN multicast: used by routing protocols and other low-level topology discovery or maintenance protocols E.g., "all-hosts" group ( ), "all-routers group ( ), "all DVMRP routers", etc. The range ( ) to ( ) are used for site-local "administratively scoped" applications. Ahmed Helmy - USC 26

27 0DSSLQJ&ODVV'WR(WKHUQHW $GGUHVV All multicast addresses in IANA's reserved block begin with E (hex) Mapping between a Class D and an Ethernet multicast address is obtained by: placing the low-order 23 bits of the Class D address into the low-order 23 bits of IANA's reserved address block. Ahmed Helmy - USC 27

28 How multicast group address (E0-0A-08-05) is mapped into an Ethernet (IEEE-802) multicast address. The mapping may place up to 32 different IP groups into the same Ethernet address because the upper five bits of the IP multicast group ID are ignored. Ahmed Helmy - USC 28

29 7KH0XOWLFDVW+RVW0RGHO Hosts can join or leave a group at any time A host may be a member of multiple groups Senders need not be members of the group Participants do not know about each other The two components of IP-multicast: the group membership protocol the multicast routing protocol Ahmed Helmy - USC 29

30 Ahmed Helmy - USC 30

31 *URXS0HPEHUVKLS3URWRFRO Routers need to learn about the presence of group members on directly attached subnets When a host joins a group: it transmits a group membership message for the group(s) that it wishes to receive sets its IP process and network interface card to receive packets sent to those groups. Ahmed Helmy - USC 31

32 This receiver-initiated join process scales well: as the group size increases, it becomes more likely for a new member to locate a nearby branch of the multicast distribution tree. Ahmed Helmy - USC 32

33 0XOWLFDVW5RXWLQJ3URWRFROV Run on routers and establish the multicast distribution tree to forward packets from sender(s) to group members. Based on unicast routing concepts: DVMRP is a distance-vector routing protocol, MOSPF is an extension to the OSPF link-state unicast routing protocol. Center-based trees (e.g., CBT & PIM-SM) introduce the notion of the tree core. Ahmed Helmy - USC 33

34 Session 2 10:15-12:00 IGMP Multicast Algorithms Ahmed Helmy - USC 34

35 ,QWHUQHW*URXS0DQDJHPHQW 3URWRFRO,*03 IGMP runs between hosts and their immediately neighboring multicast routers. The protocol allows a host to inform its first-hop router that it wishes to receive packets destined to a specific group. Ahmed Helmy - USC 35

36 5RXWHU2SHUDWLRQLQ,*03 Routers periodically query the LAN to determine if group members are still active. One router per LAN is elected as "querier" to query for group members. Through IGMP a router determines which multicast traffic needs to be forwarded to each of its "leaf" subnets. Ahmed Helmy - USC 36

37 ,*039HUVLRQ RFC-1112 To determine local group membership: Multicast routers periodically transmit Host Membership Query messages Queries are ddressed to the all-hosts group ( ) with TTL = 1 (i.e., not forwarded by any other multicast router). Ahmed Helmy - USC 37

38 +RVWV-RLQLQJ*URXSV Upon receiving a Query, a host responds with a Host Membership Report for each group that it wishes to Join Observation: The router only needs to know of at least one group member on the leaf subnet Ahmed Helmy - USC 38

39 5HSRUW6XSSUHVVLRQ0HFKDQLVP To avoid Report implosion: Each host starts a random delay timer for its Reports. If during the delay period another Report is heard for the same group, the host resets its timer Otherwise, the host transmits a Report causing other group members to reset their timers Thus, Reports are spread out over time and Report traffic is minimized Ahmed Helmy - USC 39

40 IGMP-Query Message Ahmed Helmy - USC 40

41 8SGDWLQJ/RFDO0HPEHUVKLS The querier periodically transmit Queries to update local membership If no Report is received for a group after a number of Queries, the router assumes that members are no longer present on that LAN the group is removed from the membership list of that interface/subnet Ahmed Helmy - USC 41

42 5HGXFLQJ-RLQ/DWHQF\ When a host first joins a group, it immediately transmits a Report for the group rather than waiting for a router Query. Ahmed Helmy - USC 42

43 ,*039HUVLRQ,*039 IGMP V2 was part of IP-mcast (V ) spec <draft-ietf-idmr-igmp-v2-01.txt> IGMP V2 enhances IGMP V1 IGMP V2 elects one querier for each LAN, the router with the lowest IP address. In V1, the querier election was done by the multicast routing protocol (different multicast routing protocol used different methods). Ahmed Helmy - USC 43

44 IGMP V2 defines a new Query message, the Group-Specific Query, to Query a specific group rather than all groups Ahmed Helmy - USC 44

45 5HGXFLQJ/HDYH/DWHQF\ To reduce leave latency V2 defines a Leave Group message When a host leaves a group, it sends a Leave Group to the all-routers group ( ) with the group field set to the group to be left. Upon receiving a Leave from a LAN, the querier sends Group-Specific Query on that LAN. If there are no Reports in response to the Group- Specific Query, the group is removed from the membership list of that subnet. Ahmed Helmy - USC 45

46 Observation: With IGMP V1 and V2, if a host wants to receive any sources from a group, the traffic from all sources for the group has to be forwarded onto the subnet. Ahmed Helmy - USC 46

47 ,*039HUVLRQ,*03Y Spec: <draft-ietf-idmr-igmp-v3-03.txt> IGMP V3 supports Group-Source Reports: A host can elect to receive traffic from specific sources of a multicast group. An inclusion Group-Source Report specifies the sources a host wants to receive. An exclusion Group-Source Report identifies the sources a host does not want to receive. Ahmed Helmy - USC 47

48 IGMP v3 enhances support for Leave Group messages to support Group-Source Leave messages: A host can leave an entire group or specific (source, group) pair(s). Ahmed Helmy - USC 48

49 0XOWLFDVW)RUZDUGLQJ $OJRULWKPV A multicast routing protocol is responsible for the establishment of the multicast distribution tree and for performing packet forwarding. Ahmed Helmy - USC 49

50 Several algorithms may be employed by multicast routing protocols: Flooding Spanning Trees Reverse Path Broadcasting (RPB) Truncated Reverse Path Broadcasting (TRPB) Reverse Path Multicasting (RPM) Core-Based Trees Ahmed Helmy - USC 50

51 These algorithms are implemented in the most prevalent multicast routing protocols in the Internet today. Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP) Multicast OSPF (MOSPF) Protocol-Independent Multicast (PIM) [PIM- DM and PIM-SM] Ahmed Helmy - USC 51

52 )ORRGLQJ The simplest technique for multicast delivery. When a router receives a multicast packet it determines whether or not this is the first time it has seen this packet. On first reception, a packet is forwarded on all interfaces except the one on which it arrived. If the router has seen the packet before, it is discarded. Ahmed Helmy - USC 52

53 A router does not maintain a routing table, but needs to keep track of recently seen packets. Flooding does not scale for Internet-wide application: - Generates a large number of duplicate packets and uses all available paths across the internetwork. - Routers maintain a distinct table entry for each recently seen packet (consumes memory). Ahmed Helmy - USC 53

54 6SDQQLQJ7UHH More effective than flooding Defines a tree structure where one active path connects any two routers on the Internet. Spanning Tree rooted at R Ahmed Helmy - USC 54

55 A router forwards each multicast packet to interfaces that are part of the spanning tree except the receiving interface. A spanning tree avoids looping of multicast packets and reaches all routers in the network. Ahmed Helmy - USC 55

56 A spanning tree algorithm is easy to implement However, a spanning tree solution: may centralize traffic on small number of links may not provide the most efficient path between the source and the group members. Ahmed Helmy - USC 56

57 5HYHUVH3DWK%URDGFDVWLQJ 53% More efficient than building a single spanning tree for the entire Internet. Establishes source-rooted distribution trees for every source subnet. A different spanning tree is constructed for each active (source, group) pair. Ahmed Helmy - USC 57

58 53%$OJRULWKP For each (source, group) pair if a packet arrives on a link that the router considers to be the shortest path back to the source of the packet then the router forwards the packet on all interfaces except the incoming interface. Otherwise, the packet is discarded. Ahmed Helmy - USC 58

59 The interface over which a router accepts multicast packets from a particular source is called the "parent" link. The outbound links over which a router forwards the multicast packets are called the "child" links. Ahmed Helmy - USC 59

60 Reverse Path Broadcasting (RPB) Forwarding Ahmed Helmy - USC 60

61 Enhancement to reduce packet duplication: A router determines if a neighboring router considers it to be on the shortest path back to the source. If Yes, the packet is forwarded to the neighbor. Otherwise, the packet is not forwarded on that potential child link. Ahmed Helmy - USC 61

62 To derive the parent-child information: link-state routing protocol already has it (since each router maintains a topological database for the entire routing domain). distance-vector routing protocol uses poison reverse : a neighbor can either advertise its previous hop for the source subnet as part of its routing update messages or "poison reverse" the route. Ahmed Helmy - USC 62

63 ([DPSOHRI5HYHUVH3DWK%URDGFDVWLQJ Ahmed Helmy - USC 63

64 %HQHILWV Reasonably efficient and easy to implement. Does not require keeping track of previous packets, as flooding does. Multicast packets follow the "shortest" path from the source to the group members. Avoids concentration over single spanning tree Ahmed Helmy - USC 64

65 /LPLWDWLRQV Does not take into account group membership when building the distribution tree. As a result, packets may be unnecessarily forwarded to subnets with no group members. Ahmed Helmy - USC 65

66 7UXQFDWHG5HYHUVH3DWK %URDGFDVWLQJ753% Using IGMP, routers discover group members and avoid forwarding packets onto leaf subnets with no members. The spanning delivery tree is "truncated" if a leaf subnet has no group members. Ahmed Helmy - USC 66

67 Truncated Reverse Path Broadcasting (TRPB) Ahmed Helmy - USC 67

68 TRPB eliminates unnecessary traffic on leaf subnets But it does not consider group membership when building the branches of the distribution tree. Ahmed Helmy - USC 68

69 5HYHUVH3DWK0XOWLFDVWLQJ 530 RPM enhances TRPB. RPM creates a delivery tree that spans only: -Subnets with group members -Routers and subnets along the shortest path to group members In RPM, non-member branches are pruned Packets are forwarded only along branches leading to group members. Ahmed Helmy - USC 69

70 530 2SHUDWLRQ The first multicast packet is forwarded (using TRPB) to all routers in the network. Routers at edges of the network with no downstream routers are called leaf routers. A leaf router with no downstream members sends a "prune" message on its parent link to stop packet flow down that branch. Ahmed Helmy - USC 70

71 Prune messages are sent hop-by-hop back toward the source. A router receiving a prune message stores the prune state in memory. A router with no local members that receives prunes on all child interfaces sends a prune one hop back toward the source. This succession of prune messages creates a multicast forwarding tree that contains only branches that lead to group members. Ahmed Helmy - USC 71

72 Reverse Path Multicasting (RPM) Ahmed Helmy - USC 72

73 To adapt to membership/network dynamics, the prune state is timed out periodically, and packets are broadcast throughout the network. This may result in a burst of prune messages. Ahmed Helmy - USC 73

74 /LPLWDWLRQV Despite improvements over RPM, there are scaling issues and limitations: Multicast packets are periodically forwarded to every router in the network. Routers maintain prune state off-tree for all (source,group) pairs. These limitations are amplified with increase in number of sources and groups. Ahmed Helmy - USC 74

75 &HQWHU&RUH%DVHG7UHHV &%7 Earlier algorithms build source-based trees CBT builds a single delivery tree (rooted at the core) that is shared by all group members. Multicast traffic for each group is sent and received over the shared tree, regardless of the source. Ahmed Helmy - USC 75

76 &%72SHUDWLRQ A core-based tree involves one or more cores in the CBT domain. Each leaf-router of a group sends a hop-byhop "join" message toward the "core tree" of that group. Routers need to know the group core to send the join request. Ahmed Helmy - USC 76

77 Intermediate routers process the join request: The interface on which the join was received is added to the delivery tree. Intermediate routers forward join requests toward the core until the join reaches a core or a router on the distribution tree. Senders unicast their packets toward the core. When the unicast packet reaches a member of the delivery tree, the packet is multicast to all outgoing interfaces that are part of the tree. Ahmed Helmy - USC 77

78 %HQHILWV Advantages over RPM, in terms of scalability: A router maintains state information for each group, not for each (source, group) pair. Multicast packets only flow down branches leading to members (not periodically broadcast). Only join state is kept on-tree Ahmed Helmy - USC 78

79 /LPLWDWLRQV CBT may result in traffic concentration near the core since traffic from all sources traverses the same set of links as it approaches the core. A single shared delivery tree may create suboptimal routes resulting in increased delay. Core management issues dynamic core selection core placement strategies Ahmed Helmy - USC 79

80 Session 3 1:00-2:15 Multicast Routing Protocols Dense vs. Sparse Multicast DVMRP MOSPF Ahmed Helmy - USC 80

81 0XOWLFDVW5RXWLQJ3URWRFROV In general, there are two classes of multicast routing protocols: Dense-mode protocols (broadcast-and-prune) DVMRP, PIM-DM, (MOSPF!) Sparse-mode protocols (explicit-join) PIM-SM, CBT, BGMP Ahmed Helmy - USC 81

84 'LVWDQFH9HFWRU0XOWLFDVW 5RXWLQJ3URWRFRO'9053 DVMRP constructs source-rooted trees using variants of RPM. Many MBONE routers run DVMRP DVMRP was first defined in RFC The original spec was derived from the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) and used TRPB. Mrouted version 3.8 uses RPM. Ahmed Helmy - USC 84

85 Physical/Tunnel Interfaces and Scoping: The ports of a DVMRP router may be either a physical interface to a directly attached subnet or a tunnel interface to another multicast island. Interfaces are configured with a TTL threshold that limits the scope of a multicast transmission. Each tunnel interface is configured with the IP address of the remote router's interface. Ahmed Helmy - USC 85

86 A router forwards a packet only if: TTL Packet > TTL threshold of interface TTL Scope Values Ahmed Helmy - USC 86

87 '9053%DVLF2SHUDWLRQ DVMRP implements RPM. The first packet for any (source, group) pair is broadcast to the entire network, providing the packet's TTL permits. Leaf routers with no local members send prune messages back toward the source. Ahmed Helmy - USC 87

88 Prune messages cause the removal of branches that do not lead to group members The result is source-specific shortest path tree with all leaves having group members. After a period of time, the pruned branches grow back and the packets are broadcast throughout the network. A graft mechanism helps to quickly reestablish previously pruned branches. Ahmed Helmy - USC 88

89 A new member joining the group causes the first-hop router to send a graft message to the group's previous-hop router. When an upstream router receives a graft message, it removes the prune state. Graft messages may cascade back toward the source allowing previously pruned branches to be restored. Ahmed Helmy - USC 89

99 0XOWLFDVW([WHQVLRQVWR 263)0263) OSPF V2 is defined in RFC OSPF is a unicast routing protocol that distributes topology information and calculates routes for a single domain. MOSPF is defined in RFC MOSPF routers maintain a current image of the network topology through the unicast OSPF link-state routing protocol. Ahmed Helmy - USC 99

100 MOSPF does not support tunnels Basic MOSPF runs in a single OSPF domain MOSPF uses IGMP to discover members on directly attached subnets. The Designated Router (DR) is responsible for sending membership information to all routers in the OSPF domain. The DR floods Group-Membership Link State Advertisements (LSAs) throughout the OSPF domain. Ahmed Helmy - USC 100

101 %XLOGLQJWKH6KRUWHVW3DWK7UHH The shortest path tree for (S, G) pair is built "on demand" when a router receives the first packet for (S,G). When the initial packet arrives, the source subnet is located in MOSPF link state database. MOSPF LS-DB = OSPF LS-DB + Group-Membership LSAs Ahmed Helmy - USC 101

102 Source-rooted shortest-path tree is constructed using Dijkstra's algorithm. To forward packets to downstream members, each router determines its position in the shortest path tree After the tree is built, Group-Membership LSAs are used to prune those branches that do not lead to group members. Ahmed Helmy - USC 102

103 All routers within an OSPF domain calculate the same shortest path trees. MOSPF LS-DB allow a router to perform RPM computation "in memory". No need for broadcast and prune. Ahmed Helmy - USC 103

104 )RUZDUGLQJ&DFKH Forwarding cache entry contains the (source, group) pair, the upstream node, and the downstream interfaces. MOSPF Forwarding Cache Ahmed Helmy - USC 104

105 The forwarding cache contains: Destination: The group address Source: The packet s source subnet. Upstream: The interface from which (S,G) packets are received. Downstream: The interfaces to which (S,G) packets are forwarded TTL: min. number of hops a packet needs to reach the group members. [This allows the router to discard packets with no chance of reaching the members.] Ahmed Helmy - USC 105

106 The forwarding cache is not aged. The forwarding cache will change when: The topology of the OSPF network changes, forcing all of the datagram shortest-path trees to be recalculated. There is a change in the Group-Membership LSAs indicating that the distribution of individual group members has changed. Ahmed Helmy - USC 106

The goal of the MBONE was: initially: to construct an IP multicast test-bed as it became popular: gradual deployment of multicast applications without waiting for the ubiquitous Internet multicast deployment Ahmed Helmy - USC 148

149 The MBONE is rapidly growing 40 subnets in 4 countries in 92 > 2800 subnets in over 25 countries in April 96 The MBONE is a virtual network layered on top of a subset of the Internet. It is composed of islands of multicast-capable routers connected to other islands by virtual point-to-point links called tunnels. Ahmed Helmy - USC 149

150 7XQQHOLQJ - Tunnels allow multicast traffic to pass through the non-multicast-capable parts of the Internet. - Multicast packets are encapsulated as IP-in- IP, so they look like normal unicast packets to intermediate routers. - Encapsulation is added on entry to a tunnel and stripped off on exit from a tunnel.
