Overview:

In current IP networks, a classical way to achieve traffic engineering is to optimise the link metrics. This operation cannot be done too often and can affect the route of a lot of traffic. Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) opens new possibilities to address the limitations of IP systems concerning traffic engineering thanks to explicit Label-Switched Paths (LSPs). This paper proposes a new method based on simulated annealing meta-heuristic to compute a set of LSPs that optimise a given operational objective. The hybrid IGP/MPLS approach takes advantage of both IP and MPLS technologies and provides a flexible method to traffic engineer a network on a day to day basis.
