Abstract
A network includes a plurality of nodes. Each of the nodes has a plurality of routing protocols installed therein and sets a routing protocol suitable for a requested application type. The node acquires a routing protocol suitable for the application type from a route request message, received from a client, to set a route for the client using the routing protocol. A suitable routing protocol is selected according to an application (service) type, requested by a client, in order to set an optimum route according to the application type in a network, thereby minimizing packet transmission delay and maximizing transmission efficiency.
Claims25
A method of operating a network, the method comprising:
- installing routing protocols in each of a plurality of nodes;
- setting a routing protocol suitable for a requested application type in each of the plurality of nodes;
- each node acquiring a routing protocol suitable for the application type from a route request message received from a client, and
- each node setting a route for the client using the routing protocol.
A node in a network including a plurality of nodes, the node comprising:
- a plurality of routing processors having different routing protocols installed therein, each of the routing processors having a routing table storing route information, the route information being set based upon a respective routing protocol;
- and
- a protocol selector having a protocol selection table from which the routing protocols are suitably selected according to application types, the protocol selector selecting a suitable routing protocol for an application type acquired from a route request message received from a client, and transmitting the route request message to a corresponding one of the routing processors having the suitable routing protocol installed therein to activate the corresponding routing processor.
A node in a network including a plurality of nodes, the node comprising:
- a plurality of routing processors having different routing protocols installed therein, each of the routing processors having a routing table storing route information, the route information being set based upon a respective routing protocol;
- and
- a protocol selector to acquire type information of the routing protocols of the routing processors and to transmit a routing control message, received from an adjacent node, to a predetermined routing processor having a routing protocol acquired from the routing control message installed therein;
- a routing table manager to establish a system routing table based upon the route information stored in the routing tables of the routing processors and entries specifying type information of the routing tables;
- and
- a wireless connector to search the system routing table for an entry including a destination address of a packet received via the network, and to rout the packet based upon route information of the searched entry.
A method of selecting a routing protocol in a network, the method comprising:
- setting routing protocols according to application types at a node in the network, having different types of routing protocols installed therein;
- acquiring type information of an application type from a route request message received from a client;
- selecting type information of a routing protocol suitable for the acquired application type to set a route for the route request message;
- and
- broadcasting a routing control message, including the type information of the suitable routing protocol, to an adjacent node.
A method of selecting a routing protocol, carried out by a node in a network, the method comprising:
- establishing a route selection table including routing protocols to be selected according to application types;
- acquiring type information of an application type from a route request message received from a client;
- activating a routing protocol suitable for the acquired application type, to set a route for the route request message, and storing route information of the set route in a routing table;
- broadcasting a routing control message, including type information of the suitable routing protocol, to an adjacent node;
- establishing a system routing table based upon route information set according to the routing protocols and entries specifying type information of the routing protocols;
- and
- searching the system routing table for a predetermined entry, including a destination address of a packet received via the network, and routing the packet based upon route information of the searched entry.
A method of selecting a routing protocol, carried out by a node in a network, the method comprising:
- installing plural types of routing protocols;
- acquiring type information a routing protocol from a routing control message received from an adjacent network;
- activating the acquired routing protocol to set a route for the routing control message and storing route information of the set route in a routing table;
- broadcasting a control message, including the type information of the routing protocol for the set route, to an adjacent node;
- establishing a system routing table based upon route information, set according to the routing protocols and entries specifying type information of the routing protocols;
- and
- searching the system routing table for a predetermined entry, including a destination address of a packet received via the network, and routing the packet based upon route information of the searched entry.
