A significant part of the Internet traffic today is generated by
peer-to-peer applications used for file sharing, realtime
communications and live media streaming. Such applications often
deal with large amounts of data in direct peer-to-peer connections,
but they usually have little knowledge of the underlying topology,
both at the overlay layer and the network layer. As a result, they
may choose their peers based on measurements and statistics which, in
some specific situations, often lead to suboptimal choices. This
document describes problems related to optimizing traffic generated
by peer-to-peer applications through the use of link and network
layer information.
