Research and implementation of reputation-based inter-domain routing selection mechanism
Abstract
To solve the problem of lack of validation for exchanging messages in BGP, a inter-domain routing mechanism, which consisted of a reputation evaluation mechanism and a reputation-based BGP optimal routing algorithm, was proposed.The reputation evaluation mechanism used a distributed autonomous system (AS) alliance architecture, which divided node routing behavior in detail.The service domain and observation weight were used as indicators to quantify the impact of node behavior.By designing a feedback mechanism, the reputation value not only reflected the good and bad of nodes, but also reflected the node’s resistance to malicious attacks.The reputation-based BGP routing selection algorithm adds a “security” policy to the existing routing selection algorithm by filtering routes containing low-reputation nodes and selecting the best route among high reputation routes.The experimental results show that the proposed mechanism outperform most existing reputation mechanisms by avoiding routes with vulnerable nodes and restraining the propagation of illegal routes, thereby providing a more secure inter-domain routing environment.
