Summary form only given, as follows. The complete presentation was not made available for publication as part of the conference proceedings. Routing in the Internet in its simplest form plays the role of carrying information between two end devices. Due to the structure of the Internet being federated, many components need to play together to make routing between two end devices work, and more importantly, make it work efficiently; in this regard, management plays a critical role in a federated environment. In addition, the federated environment leads to peering and tiering arrangements, and so on. In this tutorial, I'll present an overview of Internet routing, along with several critical management components such as intra/inter-domain traffic engineering, IP prefix management, and policy management. The main focus is on routing management, rather than routing itself. However, the basics of Internet routing architecture will be discussed at the beginning so that the audience get the most out of this tutorial.
