Abstract:

A Simple and Efficient 0(50msec) Resilience Technology for IPTV

Dino Farinacci, Cisco Systems;

The majority of deployed IPTV services relies on natural IGP/PIM routing convergence to offer 0(300msec) resilience. We present a very simple and efficient technology to support 0(50msec).

Bio:
Dino has built routers for 26 years. He currently is foucsed on building a next generation Data Center platform. His expertise specializes in routing protocols where he has intimate knowledge and implementation experience with IS-IS, EIGRP, OSPF, BGP, IGMP, PIM, and MSDP, as well as IPv6 and MPLS protocols. He is an advocate for modular operating systems. Dino also has been a member of the IETF for 19 years making many contributions over this period of time. Dino has worked for cisco since early 1991 but was away for 5 years at Procket Networks where he help build the highest speed and most dense router (still to date) in a half rack chassis which ran a fully modular operating system. He has been back at cisco for 3 years where he is currently working on new multicast routing technology such as Multicast Fast-Reroute, AMT, Multicast Virtualization, and layer-2 data-center multicast. Dino is not just a multicast bigot but works on many other protocol and OS initiatives. For example, very recently he is prototyping an idea called LISP to separate an internet address into an ID and Locator to allow the Internet to scale better. Dino currently works in the Data Center Business Unit at cisco where his focus is on building a next-generation platform and operating system for Enterprise and Data Center environments.

Clarence Filsfils is a Cisco Distinguished Engineer. He has been playing a key role in engineering, marketing and deploying the Quality of Service and Fast Routing Convergence technology at Cisco Systems.
