Definitions
- the present invention relates to a resource manager in an Internet Protocol (IP) network and a method for allocating network resources in an IP network and a computer program product for performing the steps of said method.
- IP Internet Protocol
- the invention relates to a method for allocating network resources in advance in the IP network, and a resource manager and a computer program product for performing the steps of said method.
- a current networking trend is to provide "IP all the way” to wired and wireless units.
- Some current objectives are to simplify the network infrastructure, to support a wide range of applications, and to support diverse user demands on the communication service. To allow this, there is a need for scalable solutions supporting service differentiation and dynamic resource management in IP networks.
- RSVP Resource Reservation Protocol
- IntServ Integrated Services defined in Braden et Al, Integrated Services in the Internet Architecture: an Overview, IETF, RFC 1633
- the scalability problems of per-flow QoS management in routers have resulted in the differentiated services architecture defined in Blake et Al, An architecture for Differentiated Services, IETF, RFC2475.
- the objective is to provide scalable QoS support by avoiding per-flow state in routers.
- IP packet headers include a small label (known as the diffserv field) that identifies the treatment per-hop behaviour that packets should be given by the routers.
- the standard model is, however, limited to differentiated forwarding in routers and therefore the challenge lies in providing predictable services to end users.
- the entity performing dynamic admission control is here called a resource manager and is further described in Wolf, L.C., Delgrossi, L., Steinmetz, R., Schaller, S., Wittig, H., "Issues of Reserving Resources in Advance", IBM European Network Center Heidelberg, TR 43.9503, 1995.
- the resource manager keeps track of the available transmission resources, e.g. bandwidth, and performs admission control on incoming requests for resources from clients.
- the resource manager manages* the resources within one domain.
- To perform the admission control the resource manager also stores a history of previously admitted resource reservations.
- the resource manager takes decisions to admit new requests for resources based on the total amount of available resources, the amount currently reserved by previously reservations and the amount of resources requested.
- the resources may or may not be scheduled over time.
- One request may involve admission control on multiple resource repositories that may consist of different types of resources.
- the most common type of resource managed is bandwidth.
- resource management mechanisms To provide service to end users, they must be aware of network resources and may schedule them for the committed service at any granularity (e.g. for a port range, for aggregate traffic between a pair of subnets, etc).
- the mechanisms should provide accurate resource control both in leaf domains and in core domains.
- leaf domains there may be requirements for very fine granular resource control (e.g. per application data stream), especially at licensed band wireless access where bandwidth is so expensive that spectrum efficiency is the overall goal.
- the performance must also be sufficient to handle mobility and frequent hand-over.
- dynamic aggregated resource management e.g. per destination domain, per port range for IP telephony, etc.
- ISPs need support for negotiating bulk bandwidth with each other by using reservations in advance and time-dependent contracts (e.g. time of day, day of week, etc.).
- time-dependent contracts e.g. time of day, day of week, etc.
- enterprise networks there are often well-provisioned LANs and bottleneck leased lines to interconnect sites. They need support for deploying new internal services (e.g. multimedia conferencing) that require certain amounts of resources, and these applications must be controlled to avoid excessive negative impact on other traffic.
- inter-domain reservations if the involved resource managers manage resources belonging to different domains.
- the funnel concept described above describes a method with over-allocation of resources in each inter- domain hop and does not describe any method to pre-allocate resources based on usage statistics.
- BGRP Border Gateway Resource Protocol
- SIBBS inter-domain QoS signalling
- pre-allocation is a manually configured static amount of resources between adjacent resource managers. This is often part of a service level agreement between the two neighbouring resource managers.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a first domain 200 comprising a client and a second domain 204 comprising a resource manager RM4.
- the client requests resources to the. second domain 204 via resource managers RM1, RM2 and RM3 located in respective intermediate domains 201, 202, 203.
- figure 2 illustrates that over- reservations increase exponentially with the number of hops.
- Network usage is often periodic to time-of-day, day-of-week and so on according to S. Uhlig, O. Bon Rush, "1ST Project ATRIUM Report 14.2 - Analysis of Interdomain Traffic", Technical Report, 2001, especially if the clients have some geographic locality.
- the typical usage for a service may for example look similar to the usage shown in the graph in Figure 3.
- more resources must be allocated. Notice that in the periods of lower usage (e.g. during the night in this example), such static over- allocation would lead to a large amount of unused resources, i.e. low utilisation.
- Figure 4 shows an example with usage history for one day back to the left and currently reserved resources to the right.
- there is a large amount of short-term immediate reservations e.g. from IP-telephony applications, and also some reservations made in advance, e.g. for multipart conferences.
- the immediate reservations can be quite short (about minutes) it would be hard to predict the required resources in advance just by looking at the current reservations (to the right in the figure) .
- the resources needed for the upcoming day could be pre-allocated based on the usage history of previous days as depicted in Figure 5.
- the arrows in figure 5 indicate where resource needs are predicted based on usage history.
- the pre-allocated resources for each hour are based on the usage history of corresponding hours in previous days.
- This kind of pre-allocation only based on history gives better utilisation than static allocation but it does not handle sporadic peak usage and variations in usage patterns very well, since the usage history cannot be adapted to a changed usage pattern.
- a client requests a resource reservation not corresponding to the available usage history statistics, the request will not be admitted and no update of the available statistics is performed unless the statistics is based on requests.
- Another example is when there is no usage history statistics available in the beginning. Hence, no resources can be allocated based on previous usage statistics, which implies that the only possible available usage statistics is based on requests. However, the usage history, that is not based on actually admitted and used resources but only on requested resources is often misleading since a client may have made many requests for the same resource until it was admitted by the resource manager.
- EP 1035666 A2 discloses an apparatus for reserving resources.
- the apparatus monitors an active session and adjusts the reservation based on predicted changes in the near future.
- a drawback with EP 1035666 is that it is not able to reserve resources in advance, i.e. before the session has started, e.g. one day ahead between 7-8 pm.
- an object with the present invention is to provide a resource manager and a method thereof that allocates network resources in advance automatically adapted to varying usage patterns with minimal signalling and still producing a high utilisation.
- An advantage with the present invention is that it makes it possible to reserve resources in advance by using algorithm 1, i.e. before the session it reserves resources for, has started. Furthermore, it is possible to reserve resources intended for sessions e.g. one day ahead between e.g. 7-8 pm. The selected amount of resources reserved is based on usage statistics for that time period. Thus, a major part of all resource reservations may be handled this way. However, there exist other situations when changes in the network usage occurs, e.g. sporadic peak usage. Therefore, the algorithm 2 is introduced that can handle such changes. Thus, the algorithms 1 and 2 work in parallel simultaneously, wherein algorithm 1 is based on usage history and algorithm 2 is based on the current resource requirement and on the resource requirement in a near future.
- Another advantage with the present invention is that the combined algorithms 1 and 2 according to the present invention reduce the end-to-end signalling between resource managers and thus increase the speed of the admission control by taking local decisions. This will also reduce the average delay from request to reply for the client. In normal operation many thousands of inter-domain reservation requests may be aggregated into a single inter-domain pre-allocated resource. This will also reduce the state that needs to be stored in the other resource managers along the path.
- a further advantage with the present invention is that the solution also increases the utilisation by adapting to any periodicity of the usage patterns and increases the availability of the service by pre- allocating the resources in-advance so that resources are available at the time they are needed.
- FIG. 1 illustrates an IP network schematically, wherein the present invention may be implemented.
- Figure 2 illustrates schematically over-allocation at each hop in a network.
- Figure 3 is a graph showing a typical time-of-day usage pattern.
- Figure 4 is a graph showing Usage history to the left and currently reserved resources to the right
- Figure 5 is a graph showing pre-allocation one day of resources based on previous usage history.
- Figure 6 is a graph showing the amount of resources allocated by the two algorithms in accordance with the present invention.
- Figure 7 is a block diagram showing a resource manager according to the present invention.
- FIG. 8 is a flowchart of the method in accordane with the present invention.
- FIG. 1 illustrates an IP network 100 where the present invention may be implemented.
- the network 100 comprises at least one network domain A;B;C, at least two resource managers a;b;c;d, wherein said resource managers a;b;c;d are located within the same network domain or in different network domains.
- Each network domain may comprise a plurality of routers, endpoints (e.g. pc, IP telephones etc.) and servers connected to each other (not shown in figure 1).
- each domain comprises at least one resource manager a;b;c;d that is implemented within one of the plurality of servers or routers.
- the resource managers are adapted to communicate 109-114 with each other.
- a solution to the problem of pre-allocating resources that automatically adapts to varying usage patterns with minimal signalling and still producing a high utilisation is in accordance to the present invention to combine a first algorithm and a second algorithm that work in parallel.
- the algorithms are used by a first resource manager, which receives a resource reservation request from a client, or a second resource manager, and requests resources further from a third resource manager. It is also possible that the first resource manager requires the requested resources itself. Thus, the first resource manager allocates resources to the requesting entity, i.e. to the client, the second resource manager or the first resource manager itself, if the requested resources are admitted.
- the first algorithm is looking backwards in time and the second algorithm is looking forward.
- the first algorithm, algorithm 1 uses history statistics of resource usage. This statistics describes when and how many resource requests that actually have been admitted and reserved and further predicts the upcoming needs and pre-allocates the predicted resource needs in advance.
- the first algorithm is used to reserve resources in advance before the session, that will use said resource, has started.
- the second algorithm, algorithm 2 allocates network resources individually for each resource reservation where the available usage history statistics is not possible to use, and thus does not fit into the pre-allocated resources allocated by algorithm 1.
- the algorithm 2 updates said usage history statistics used in algorithm 1 based on the individually allocated resources.
- algorithm 1 will not pre-allocate any resources and algorithm 2 will thus have to signal individually for each reservation request received. However, the results from the resource allocations by algorithm 2 are collected for the usage history statistics for algorithm 1. In time, the amount of usage statistics will be increased so that algorithm 1 will start to pre-allocate resources to the destination in use. (A destination is e.g.
- the graph in Figure 6 shows how more and more of the total amount of requested resources is allocated by algorithm 1 (the curve 602) as the statistics are building up. Without having algorithm 2 (the curve 604), algorithm 1 would have to base its statistics on requested resources and not admitted and used resources and this may be misleading since a client may try and request multiple times for one needed resource. That depends on as described above, that no statistics is available at the beginning, and without having algorithm 2, no statistics will be collected which implies that requested resources would be the only available data.
- the frequency rate of the resource allocation by algorithm 1 is increased 602 due to that algorithm 2 is also used 604 for building up usage statistics that can be used by algorithm 1.
- algorithm 1 Big changes in usage patterns or as the previous example of starting up with no statistics at all may involve a large amount of signalling by algorithm 2. In this case a manual adjustment or initialisation of the statistics may be desired to speed up the adaptation of algorithm 1.
- algorithm 1 is configured with constructed statistics and it is then possible for algorithm 1 to start allocating resources before true statistics is provided.
- Pre-allocating resources between resource managers in advance results in that signalling involving all resource managers is not needed for each client reservation.
- IP- telephony systems there may be many thousands of requests to a destination during an hour that may be pre-allocated by the resource manager for the whole hour in advance only using one request. Notice that the statistics are preferably based on resource usage per destination. If multiple resource managers are involved, the intermediate resource managers must know the destination of the traffic in order to pre-allocate resources to desired destinations. It is not enough to only adjust the service level agreement between two different resource managers to match the requested resources from the clients, since signalling would still be needed to all involved resource managers for each reservation to be set up.
- the resource manager in accordance with the present invention can make a local decision to accept or deny new reservation requests without signalling to all involved resource managers. This will increase the rate of admission control and reduce the delay for the client requests.
- Algorithm 1 may pre-allocate an hour, a day, an entire week etc. in-advance depending on e.g. the periodicity of the usage history statistics. In the previous example; algorithm 1 would preferably allocate one day in advance and allocate in blocks of one hour for each signalling between resource managers. In another embodiment, the resource manager is signalling once per hour or in yet another embodiment the resource manager allocates all resources at once. Since algorithm 2 allocates resources per resource reservation occasion, several (thousands of) signals may occur for each destination per hour depending on applications and usage patterns, therefore it is desirable that algorithm 1 covers as much of the resources as possible.
- Algorithm 1 pre-allocates resources per destination.
- the time interval between each allocation occasion may either be equal for all destinations or differ between the destinations. If there are multiple services or traffic demands for a destination, statistics for individual services may be used to pre-allocate resources which also depend on the service requested.
- the statistics stored from previous usage may include the peak value, the average value, the variance etc. and it should be possible to configure algorithm 1 to pre- allocate resources based on these parameters (e.g average + 2*sqrt(variance))
- the amount to pre-allocate is a trade-off between over-allocation and the amount of signaling that has to be done by algorithm 2. It is also desirable to be able to configure the time in advance, that resources should be allocated and the granularity of the pre-allocation and statistics, e.g one value per parameter for each hour in the example.
- previous values may be weighted into the new values.
- One example is to use 0.5*previous_value + 0.5*the_new_value for each new day and hour. In this way the algorithm will adapt slower to temporary changes in usage than if only one day was looked back.
- Another example is to use 0.9*previous_value + 0. l*the_new_value which will adapt very slowly.
- the method for allocating in an IP network in accordance with the present invention is described below in a general mode and illustrated in the flowchart in figure 8.
- the method comprises the steps of: 801. Allocate reserved resources based on usage history statistics when available usage history statistics is applicable to said resource reservation request.
- the method is in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention carried out by a resource manager wherein the resource manager is located within a router or a server within an IP network.
- the resource manager comprises means 702 for allocating reserved network resources in advance based on usage history statistics 708 when available usage history statistics 708 is applicable to said network resource reservation request, means 704 for allocating network resources individually for said requested network resource reservation when applicable usage history statistics 708 is not available, and means 706 for updating said usage history statistics 708 based upon said individually allocated network resources.
- the method may be implemented by means of a computer program product comprising the software code means for performing the steps of the method.
- the computer program product is run on processing means within a router or/ and a server.
- the computer program is loaded directly or from a computer usable medium.
