IP SWITCHING
Shishir Agrawal, Ohio State University
The rapid growth of Internet and increase in real-time and multimedia applications have created a need to improve Internet routing technology in terms of bandwidth, performance, scalability and delivery of new functionalities. Several proposals involving application of layer 2 switching technology to layer 3 routing have been made to counter above challenges. Noticeable efforts in this directions are Ipsilon's IP Switching, Cisco's Tag Switching, IBM's ARIS, Toshiba's CSR and MPLS.
