We evaluate five direct hashing methods and one table-based hashing method. We find that hashing using a 16-bit CRC over the Five tuple giv

Further, load-adaptive table-based hashing using the exclusive OR of the source and destination IP addresses achieves comparable performance to the 16-bit CRC. Table-based hashing can also distribute traffic load according to unequal weights. We also report o

INTRODUCTION Load balancing (also known as load sharing) is a key technique for improving the performance and scalability of the Internet. For example, many large enterprise networks are connected to multiple I

Inside the Internet, the backbones are often engineered to have multiple parallel trunks between major Points of Presence to ensure high availability. Typically, these parallel trunks are congured a

The parallel trunks may become even more ubiquitous when the promising Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) technology is deployed in the future Internet back-bone. DWDM expands the capacity of communication trunks by allowing a gre

With potentially tens or even hundreds of DWDM channels between major points, load balancing is essential in best utilizing the multiple parallel channels. Parallel architectures have been used for packet processing for coping with exp

The same technique is also used in scaling web servers. Popular web servers often operate a farm of machines and t

10、he routers connected to them split the HTTP requests to different machines. For all of these examples, effective use of load balancing requires good schemes for splitting traffic over multiple links. In addition, since the majority of the traffic on the Internet is TCP-based 1, traffic splitting sch

In this paper, we propose and evaluate a class of hashing based traffic splitting algorithms which preserve per-ow packet ordering. We con

We also consider a table-based generalization that involves hashing to M bins, then assigning the M bins to the N outgoing links. Table based ha

Our results are obtained by simulating the performance of a trafc splitter, using packet traces taken from two trunks of a major Internet backbone provider. We nd that

14、direct hashing with the destination IP address causes signicant imbalance across two links. Using the Internet checksum or the exclusive OR of both the source IP address and destination IP address improves the performance considerably, though moderate imbalance persists. The more computationally complex 16-bit CRC of the ve-tuple (source address, destination address, source port,destination port and
