Solving Anycast Scalability with Multicast Tree in IPv6
Zhenmin Tang · 2008
A new kind of Anycast communication model was proposed on the basis of multicast tree technology.Since this model achieves dynamic Anycast group,it allows Anycast members to freely leave and join Anycast group,it radically solves the existing scalability problem.In addition,this model accomplishes the distributed maintenance and transaction of Anycast service request and the information on Anycast tree so it fulfills the load balance.Deeply analyzed and discussed the feasibility and validity of this communication model,and the experimental data in IPv6 simulation demonstrated that the TRT of one Anycast service(for example,file downloading) acquired through this communication model is shorter than the one through the current communication model.
