  2. P4P Portal Services • Location Portal Service • pDistance Portal Service

  3. Location Portal Service • Allows an ISP to aggregate the Internet address space to define its own “my-Internet” view • Highly preferred by ISPs during our field tests • The “my-Internet” view of an ISP consists of a set of PIDs (partition IDs)

  4. PID • A PID denotes a set of network locations • A generalization of network aggregation concepts such as autonomous system (AS) or intradomain routing area • Can denote aggregation such as • a subnet, a point of presence (PoP), a type of customers (dslvs fiber), an AS, or a set of ASes • May define hierarchical PIDs, but focus on one level so far

  5. “My-Internet” View of isp1: an Example pid4.intra.isp1 pid5.exter.isp1 pid6.exter.isp1 pid7.exter.isp1 pid1.intra.isp1 pid3.intra.isp1 pid2.intra.isp1

  6. Implementation: Interfaces Defined in the Location Portal Service • GetPID (MUST) • IP address → PID • GetPIDMap (SHOULD) • PID → list of IP prefixes/ASNs belonging to the PID

  7. pDistance Portal Service • The pDistance Portal Service allows an ISP to define the pDistance for any given pair of network locations • network location: IP address/PID • pDistance: path metric distance, provider distance

  8. pDistance • Semantics of pDistance depends on • Ordinal or numerical (default) pDistance • Type of pDistance, e.g., • Routing Hop-Count pDistance • Routing Air-Mile pDistance • Routing Cost pDistance (default if not indicated)

  9. Example: Routing Cost pDistance of isp1 Multihoming cost opt. dual, orf(BGP local pref., AS_PATH, …) pid4 pid5 pid6 pid7 pid1 pid3 pid2 OSPF path cost; TE dual variables

  10. Implementation: Interface Defined in the pDistance Portal Service • GetpDistance (MUST) • [a pair of network locations, and optionally type of pDistance] → pDistance value

  11. How May a P2P Application Use these P4P Portal Services? • This depends on the applications • It is a place for application innovation

  12. Example: Tracker-Based File-Sharing P2P in July/August 2008 • The tracker resolves the PIDs of clients • By using PID Maps • The tracker uses a peering weight matrix to select initial peers for a new client • Peering weight matrix computed according to swarm state and pDistance matrix

  13. Application Tracker Data Structure pid1 PID Map, list of clients in pid1 pid7 PID Map, list of clients in pid7 peering weight matrix isp1 ispK
