ANYCAST SCALABILITY DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION IN IPV6

Anycast is a kind of new service so the study on it is still on the primary stage and inevitably there exist many problems in fulfilling anycast service, one of which is scalability. This paper proposes a scalable architecture for global IP-anycast service on the basis of BGP and ICMPv6 in IPV6 simulation, and analyzes and discusses the feasibility and validity of this architecture, and gives a detail description of its design and implementation. According to the IPv6 simulation, this paper further discusses its performance and error tolerance.
