The document compares Ethernet and InfiniBand networking technologies. It summarizes that InfiniBand provides more reliable transport than Ethernet through hardware-based retransmission and CRC checks. It also enables higher performance switching through cut-through routing and larger, lower cost switches compared to Ethernet technologies. InfiniBand further supports reliable direct memory access without TCP/IP overhead.
Design Cloud system: InfiniBand vs. EthernetPatrik Kristel
Comparison between two technologies in Cloud system design. We are focusing to advantages or disadvantages of InfiniBand and Ethernet in current Cloud systems and Data center design.
This document discusses the Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP), which allows hosts to report their multicast group memberships to neighboring multicast routers. It describes the different versions of IGMP, including IGMPv1, IGMPv2, and IGMPv3. It also covers IGMP messages like membership queries, reports, and leaves. IGMP snooping is defined as a switch feature that optimizes multicast traffic delivery by only forwarding traffic to ports with interested receivers. Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) serves a similar purpose for IPv6 as IGMP does for IPv4.
STP prevents loops by electing a single root bridge and blocking redundant links. It uses BPDUs containing bridge IDs and path costs to elect the root bridge with the lowest bridge ID. The switch with bridge ID 32768.0001.964E.7EBB is elected as the root bridge based on having the lowest bridge ID of the switches shown.

IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) allows hosts to join and leave multicast groups, enabling efficient delivery of data from a sender to multiple receivers. It works between hosts and multicast routers to inform when a host wants to join or leave a multicast transmission. This avoids overloading the network by allowing data to be sent to all interested receivers simultaneously rather than requiring separate data streams to each device. Stanford University first specified IGMP in 1989 to manage dynamic groups for IP multicast transmissions.
The Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is used to report issues with the delivery of IP packets. It allows devices on the network to check connectivity and diagnose routing problems. ICMP messages are transmitted as IP packets and used by ping and traceroute utilities. It supports functions like announcing network errors, congestion, and assisting troubleshooting. While providing important feedback, ICMP redirect messages can potentially direct traffic to unauthorized systems if not restricted to trusted sources.
This document discusses the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) which provides a loop-free network topology by placing ports into blocking states. It describes how STP elects a root bridge, establishes root and designated ports, and transitions ports between blocking and forwarding states. The document also introduces Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol which speeds up STP's recalculation of the spanning tree when the network topology changes.

This document provides an overview of Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), which are protocols used to create a loop-free topology in Ethernet networks. It describes the goal of preventing broadcast storms by eliminating loops. Key aspects of STP covered include the root bridge, port roles (root port, designated port, non-designated port), BPDUs, path costs, and how STP establishes a loop-free topology for bridged network segments. The document also provides standards information for various STP implementations.
The document provides an overview of InfiniBand essentials that every HPC expert must know. It discusses InfiniBand principles like fabric components, architecture, and discovery stages.

The document is meant to educate professionals on InfiniBand fundamentals through topics like switches, adapters, cables, fabric management, and more.
Storm control blocks interfaces from receiving excessive broadcast, multicast, or unicast traffic over a threshold within a time period. When traffic exceeds the rising threshold, the interface is blocked until traffic drops below the falling threshold. Storm control can shut down interfaces or send SNMP traps. It was tested between two switches, with one interface shutting down when unicast traffic exceeded 100 packets per second due to storm control being triggered.
BGP is an exterior gateway protocol that exchanges routing and reachability information between autonomous systems on the Internet. It makes routing decisions based on configured network policies and paths. As the routing protocol of the Internet, BGP is robust and scalable, connecting multiple private networks and autonomous systems globally.
BGP is an inter-AS routing protocol used to exchange routing and reachability information between autonomous systems on the internet. It uses path vector routing rather than distance vector, and carries richer metric information than IGPs. BGP configurations establish neighbor relationships between routers in different ASes to exchange routing updates.

This document provides an overview of the Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP). It discusses the different types of ICMP messages including error reporting messages like Destination Unreachable and query messages like Echo Request and Reply. It describes the ICMP message format, checksum calculation, and how debugging tools like ping and traceroute use ICMP to troubleshoot network connectivity issues. Specific examples are provided to demonstrate how to use these tools and interpret their output.
The document provides an overview of configuring the Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP). It describes the basic operation and components of EIGRP, including its tables, metrics, neighbor discovery, and packet types. The objectives are to describe EIGRP functionality, plan and implement EIGRP routing, and configure and verify EIGRP implementations in enterprise networks.
The document provides an overview of Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) which is the routing protocol used to exchange routes between institutions and the KAREN network. BGP allows different autonomous systems (AS) to exchange routing information and is more than just a routing protocol as it contains additional route attributes that are used for policy rules. BGP can operate internally within an AS or externally between ASes to control route propagation based on commercial agreements.
Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP) is a Cisco proprietary redundancy protocol for establishing a faulttolerant default gateway, and has been described in detail in RFC 2281.
The protocol establishes a framework between network routers in order to achieve default gateway
failover if the primary gateway becomes inaccessible, in close association with a rapid-converging
routing protocol like EIGRP or OSPF. By multicasting packets, HSRP sends its hello messages to the
multicast address 224.0.0.2 (all routers) for version 1, or 224.0.0.102 for version 2, using UDP port 1985,
to other HSRP-enabled routers, defining priority between the routers.
IS-IS uses three types of adjacencies - L1, L2, and L1/2. Adjacencies are established through a three-way handshake and can be in one of three states: down, initializing, or up. Key IS-IS operations include routers discovering neighbors through hello messages, establishing adjacencies, building LSPs, flooding LSPs to neighbors, running SPF to build routing tables. DIS is elected to reduce the mesh in broadcast networks and is chosen based on priority and MAC address.
The document provides an overview of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). It discusses BGP concepts such as autonomous systems, path attributes, and the BGP protocol operation. Key points include that BGP establishes peering sessions to exchange routing information, uses route attributes like AS path, next hop, and communities to determine the best path, and supports techniques like route reflection and confederation to improve scalability in large networks.

This document provides an overview of IP multicasting. It defines multicasting as delivering information to multiple recipients simultaneously. It describes protocols like IGMP for hosts to join multicast groups, and PIM for routing multicast traffic along shared or source-based trees. Key challenges include restricting access and securing multicast data delivery.
100G networking technology is becoming more mature and widely adopted to handle increasing bandwidth demands. It provides significantly higher speeds than 10G networking, with lower latency and higher packet processing capabilities. Key technologies include 100G Ethernet, InfiniBand EDR, and Intel's OmniPath. These support a variety of form factors and can be split into lower speeds. While 100G NICs and switches are available, software and operating systems need improvements to fully leverage the capabilities and handle the throughput, such as integrating RDMA for high performance.
InfiniBand is a high-performance interconnect used in high-performance computing. It uses switched fabric topology to allow for high throughput, low latency, and reliability. InfiniBand cables and components allow for data transfer rates from 2 Gbit/s to 120 Gbit/s. It uses a layered architecture including physical, link, network, and transport layers to reliably transfer data. InfiniBand provides superior performance over Ethernet and supports scalability and fault tolerance making it well-suited for high-performance computing environments.

Topic of Presentation: Handling high-bandwidth-consumption applications in a modern DC design
Language: English
Abstract: Modern Data Centre requires proper handling of high-bandwidth consuming applications, like BigData or IP Storage. To achieve this, next generation Ethernet speeds of 25, 50 and 100Gbps are being pursued. We are to show _why_ these new Ethernet speeds are vital from technology standpoint and _how_ to cope with the those sparkling new requirements by networking hardware enablements. We are to share ethernet switches’ design considerations, with the biggest emphasis put on the importance of big buffers and how they accommodate this bursty traffic. Throughout the presentation we will additionally elaborate on the evolution of variety of modern applications, and how we can handle those with the properly designed hardware, software, and Data Centre itself.
10 Gigabit Ethernet Technology
Description: This presentation shows the use of 10 Gigabit Ethernet Technology
10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GE, 10GbE, or 10 GigE) is a group of computer networking technologies for transmitting Ethernet frames at a rate of 10 gigabits per second. It was first defined by the IEEE 802.3ae-2002 standard. Unlike previous Ethernet standards, 10 Gigabit Ethernet defines only full-duplex point-to-point links which are generally connected by network switches; shared-medium CSMA/CD operation has not been carried over from the previous generations Ethernet standards[1] so half-duplex operation and repeater hubs do not exist in 10GbE.

Due to the wide availability and low cost of high speed networking, commodity clusters have become the de facto standard for building high performance parallel computing systems. This talk will introduce the leading technology for high speed interconnects called Infiniband and compare its deployment and performance to Ethernet. In addition, some emerging interconnect technologies and trends in cluster networking will be discussed.
This document discusses the benefits of 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GE) for reducing latency. It states that 10GE allows for lower CPU utilization and reduced latency within servers compared to Gigabit Ethernet. It also discusses that while Infiniband promised low latency, it required application rewrites and added complexity due to needing translation to Ethernet outside local networks. The document explores 10GE cabling options like SFP+ which provide the lowest latency, and network interface cards that support technologies like RDMA for further reducing latency within servers. With the right hardware and software, organizations can see over an 80% reduction in overall end-to-end latency by moving from Gigabit Ethernet to 10GE.
GEPON (Gigabit Ethernet Passive Optical Network) is a fiber access technology for point-to-multipoint applications that provides high bandwidth. It consists of an OLT (Optical Line Terminal), ONUs (Optical Network Units), a passive optical splitter, and optical distribution networks. GEPON uses different wavelengths (1310nm and 1490nm) for upstream and downstream transmission over a single fiber between the OLT and multiple ONUs. It can provide symmetrical bandwidth up to 1Gbps over long transmission lengths of 10-20km while supporting data, voice, and video delivery. 2Fonet provides competitive GEPON products like their OLT3000 that can connect to 256
Next-generation networks are becoming more complex and must support global workforces, legacy devices, and integrated voice, video, and data. Cisco's borderless network architecture addresses these challenges through a hierarchical design with core, distribution, and access layers that provide modularity, resiliency, and flexibility. Ethernet switches establish separate collision domains and extend broadcast domains, so network design must minimize broadcasts to prevent congestion.
This document provides an overview of optical Ethernet. It defines optical Ethernet as using fiber optic cables to transmit Ethernet data at high speeds. The document outlines the different types of optical Ethernet including standard Ethernet, fast Ethernet, gigabit Ethernet, and 10 gigabit Ethernet. It describes how optical Ethernet works and recent trends like optical Ethernet switches. The document also discusses the frame structure, advantages, disadvantages and applications of optical Ethernet.
Honeypot Farms using Ethernet Bridging over a TCP Connection morisson
This document describes a tool called Kangaroo that was developed by the Portugal Honeynet Project to simplify the deployment of honeypot farms. Kangaroo uses Ethernet bridging over TCP connections to transport traffic between remote honeypots and a central server, avoiding the complexity of routing. This allows quick deployment of honeypots in remote locations while analyzing the traffic centrally. Kangaroo relies on libpcap and libnet to capture and inject packets without requiring kernel modifications. It creates virtual interfaces on the central bridge server to isolate honeypots on different VLANs. Traffic to and from the honeypots is bridged through TCP tunnels between remote servers and the central server in a transparent manner.
LAWIN: a Latency-AWare InterNet Architecture for Latency Support on Best-Effo...Katsushi Kobayashi
Abstract—While strict latency restrictions are imposed on network applications, current best-effort Internet architecture entirely lacks this support. In this paper, we propose a “Latency AWare InterNet” (LAWIN) architecture that supports various la- tency requirements while retaining the best-effort service model. In the LAWIN architecture, applications specify their desired network latency limits, or deadlines, into all packets, and routers schedule these packets according to their deadlines. To this end, we propose two earliest-deadline-first (EDF)-based packet schedulers. The first imposes the same packet loss rate on all applications regardless of the latency specified by each, and provides rough flow-rate fairness. The second scheduler imposes a biased packet loss probability. The biased scheduler also provides an efficient latency and bandwidth trading mechanism for application settings, which motivates applications to set optimal latencies in order to improve efficiency.
InfiniBand is a high-performance network architecture based on a switched fabric design that supports bandwidth between 2.5-30Gbps. It is used in storage and cluster networks and offers throughput of up to 2.5GB/s and support for 64,000 devices. InfiniBand uses a serial bus design and supports multiple memory areas that can be addressed by processors and storage. It uses switched routing and Internet Protocol Version 6 for almost limitless device expansion.

The IEEE 802 is a family of IEEE standards dealing with Local Area Networks and Metropolitan Area Networks. The IEEE 802 family of standards is maintained by the IEEE 802 LAN/MAN Standards Committee (LMSC).
The most widely used standards are for the Bridging and Virtual Bridged LANs (802.1), Ethernet family (802.3), Token Ring (802.5) and Wireless LAN (802.11).
This document discusses network design and architecture from different layers. It begins by explaining the 7 layers of the OSI model and network terminology. It then discusses the need for high bandwidth networks to support applications like video. Wavelength division multiplexing is introduced as a way to increase fiber capacity. The document discusses typical network requirements, protection schemes, and the differences between OADM and RODAM networks. It provides examples of network architectures from the perspective of layers 1, 2, and 3.
10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) provides high-speed networking at 10 Gbps using fiber optic cables. It retains the Ethernet MAC protocol and frame formats. 10GbE uses two encoding steps and fiber optic media, and remains true to the original Ethernet model. It enables applications in LANs, MANs, WANs and SANs by providing increased bandwidth for bandwidth-hungry uses. 10GbE also provides the infrastructure for network-attached storage and storage area networks.
ISDN is a set of standards for digital transmission over telephone wires that requires adapters at both ends. It provides two channels for carrying data and one for control/signaling. TCP/IP was developed by DOD to connect different networks and provides routing from local to global networks. Circuit switching establishes a fixed bandwidth connection between nodes before communication, unlike packet switching which can have varying delay.
The document discusses VXLAN BGP EVPN based multi-pod, multi-fabric, and multi-site network architectures. It provides an overview of the evolution from single-pod/fabric deployments to more complex multi-site designs.

The OpenFlow Conformance Test Program is currently under development and facing several barriers. Key elements like the test specification and reference test code are being developed but are behind schedule. Testing for the 1.3 specification currently lacks funding. Barriers include a lack of contributions from volunteers as testing increases in complexity, and an unsustainable business model. Possible steps to address these issues include catching development up, increasing visibility of the program, and developing a long-term strategic vision and viable business model with funding from ONF members and other interested parties.
This document discusses cloud data center network architectures and how to scale them using Arista switches. It describes the limitations of legacy data center designs and introduces the cloud networking model. The cloud networking model with Arista switches provides benefits like lower latency, no oversubscription between racks, and the ability to scale to hundreds of racks. The document then discusses how to scale the network using layer 2, layer 3, and VXLAN designs from thousands to over a million nodes. It provides examples of scaling the number of leaf and spine switches to achieve greater node counts in a non-blocking two-tier design.
This document discusses how Amazon Web Services (AWS) can be used to build scalable game infrastructure. It recommends using AWS services like Elastic Load Balancing, Amazon EC2, Amazon RDS, Amazon S3, CloudFront, Auto Scaling, ElastiCache and DynamoDB to allow games to automatically scale capacity based on player demand. It also discusses global deployment across AWS regions and using VPC networking and placement groups to optimize game server performance.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
