Abstract:
In a Interior Gateway Protocol like OSPF (Open Shortest Path First)
the computation of the Constrained shortest path to destinations is
computed for an area say a backbone or a non-backbone area using the
TE-metrics advertised in the area. With importance given to the
reduction of power within a network it becomes important to provide a
solution that reduces the power consumed amongst routers and links
that make up the network (in this case an area or a collection of
areas including the backbone and non-backbone areas). This proposal
aims at providing such a solution by producing a power topology of
the area / areas. This power topology is constructed by assigning
metrics to links based on the power consumed by the linecards (and
hence their respective ports in an indirect way) of adjacent routers
that are interconnected by each such link.
