  1. MaxNet: Quick Overview • MaxNet is: • A Fully distributed flow control architecture for large networks (no per-flow state in router) • Max-Min fair in principle. • Stable for networks of arbitrary topology, number of users, capacity and delay. • Fast convergence properties. • Addresses short-flow control. • Low queuing delay, drastically reduces router buffer size requirements. • Based on similar analysis as FAST TCP • Incrementally deployable; Integrates with FAST TCP

  2. MaxNet: Packet Format MaxNet requires N bits in the packet to carry an explicit signal about the path congestion level. The routers along the packet’s path modify this congestion signal. The congestion signal controls the source’s rate. Data Congestion Signal N Bits IPV6 IPV4 TCP

  3. MaxNet: System Maxnet requires the participation of the Source, Router and Receiver. The sourcerate is controlled by a feedback value in the ACK packet. This feedback value is obtained from routers as the packet passes through MaxNet links on their way to the receiver. Each routers only remarks the packet if its congestion value is higher than in the packet, hence MaxNet. At the end of the path, the packet holds the highest congestion value off all routers along the path. TCP sender TCP receiver Data packets P P P P p1 p2 Xmit Rate Router Router P P P P ACK packets Source 1. Transmits packets at ratecontrolled by feedback value in ACK Pj • Router • 2. Computes congestion level • Remarks packet if router’s congestionlevel is higher than level in packet Receiver 4. Relays P value and sends it back to sender in an ACK packet.

  4. MaxNet: Source & Link Algorithm Xmit rate Xi Pj – Feedback Signal Source Algorithm D(Pj) Source receives ACK j with feedbackvalue Pj and determines transmissionrate by demand function D(Pj): Xi = D(Pj) Link Algorithm • Router monitors aggregate input traffic rate Yl(t) destined for link l which has capacity Cl(t): • Every 10 ms router l computes its congestion level pl: • pl(t+1) = pl(t) + b(Y(t)-aC(t)) • a control target link utilization • b controls convergence rate • 2. For every data packet k with signal Pk router conditionally remarks it: • if (Pk < pl(t)) Pk=pl(t)
