Abstract:Traffic balancing in routing optimization targets to minimize network congestion in traffic engineering. How to select paths for traffic balancing becomes a challenging problem. For minimizing network congestion, this paper argues that network congestion is determined by paths’ congestion, and proposes the minimizing sum of path-cost model of traffic balancing. For path selection in routing traffic, a minimal cost path algorithm is proposed. On the basis of real network topology and traffic demand, experiments are conducted to verify the model and algorithm proposed, and results show a nearly 20% decrease of maximal link utilization when network is becoming congested.
