Abstract：
The Internet has evolved from a hierarchical and multi-tiered interconnection network to a meshed network, where autonomous systems (ASs) are interconnected with a dense topology and more and more potential paths can be used to reach a destination. However, routing policies are the key to enable these potential paths and to allow the selection of these paths. While the well-known routing guidelines provide routing policies that are proved to converge, a survey on deployed routing policies has shown that a significant portion of networks or ASs do not follow the well-known guidelines completely. In this talk, we present a series of routing policies that enable diverse paths and provide flexibility in selecting these paths. We systematically bring out more and more flexible routing policies and derive the sufficient conditions for routing convergence. Our conditions show that the local coordination among neighboring ASs is sufficient for routing convergence.
