    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for Internet-scale routing using small-scale border routers and IP tunneling are described. Each border router is directly connected to a transit provider. Routing protocol peerings may be passed via the border routers through tunnels to a routing service; the routing service and the transit provider router(s) appear to be directly adjacent routing peers. The routing service receives routing data from the transit provider(s), maintains the routing data in a routing table, and processes the routing data in the routing table to select best paths. A mapping service may be informed, by the routing service, of a best exit point (or points) for each Internet prefix of each packet to be routed on the Internet. Outbound packets from devices on the network to the Internet, and inbound packets from the Internet to the network devices, may be encapsulated and passed through tunnels as directed by the mapping service.

    Abstract: The deployment and scaling of a network of electronic devices can be improved by utilizing one or more network transpose boxes. Each transpose box can include a number of connectors and a meshing useful for implementing a specific network topology. Different tiers of a network can be connected to one or more of the network transpose boxes, and operated as a logical switch. A control server can be used to manage the control plane operations of the logical switch.

    Abstract: A routing management component is provided for distributing routing information among a hierarchical distributed routing architecture. The routing management component can function to associate levels of the routing architecture with subsets of a network address format. The routing management component can further assign routers of the routing architecture to portions of network addresses defined at least in part by the network address format. For example, a router may be assigned to route packets addressed to a network address with a first octet between a range of values. The router management component may further distribute, to the routers of the hierarchical distributed routing architecture, sections of routing information associated with their assigned portions of network addresses. Because routing information can be distributed between various routers, the memory requirements of individual routers can be reduced comparatively to systems in which a single router maintains an entire set of forwarding information.

    Abstract translation: 提供路由管理组件用于在分级分布式路由体系结构中分发路由信息。 路由管理组件可以用于将路由架构的级别与网络地址格式的子集相关联。 路由管理组件可进一步将路由体系结构的路由器分配至少部分地由网络地址格式定义的网络地址部分。 例如,可以分配路由器来路由寻址到具有值范围之间的第一个八位字节的网络地址的数据包。 路由器管理组件还可以向分层分布式路由架构的路由器分发与其分配的网络地址部分相关联的路由信息​​的部分。 由于路由信息可以分布在不同的路由器之间,因此可以将单个路由器的存储器需求相对于单个路由器维护一整套转发信息的系统来降低。

    Abstract: The deployment and scaling of a network of electronic devices can be improved by utilizing one or more network transpose boxes. Each transpose box can include a number of connectors and a meshing useful for implementing a specific network topology. When connecting devices of different tiers in the network, each device need only be connected to at least one of the connectors on the transpose box. The meshing of the transpose box can cause each device to be connected to any or all of the devices in the other tier as dictated by the network topology. When changing network topologies or scaling the network, additional devices can be added to available connectors on an existing transpose box, or new or additional transpose boxes can be deployed in order to handle the change with minimal cabling effort.

    Abstract: As exterior routing protocols generally do not provide information about the internal routing paths of an autonomous system, a particular autonomous system has limited information about the internal health of other autonomous systems. However, if a monitoring system has access to routing data and/or other network data from multiple points of an autonomous system, the monitoring system can estimate, with some accuracy, the health of the autonomous system. In turn, by monitoring at least some of autonomous systems forming a larger internetwork, such as the Internet, the monitoring system can estimate the overall health of at least portions of the internetwork.
