How to Make Routing Scale
• Flat versus Hierarchical Addresses
• Inefficient use of Hierarchical Address Space
– class C with 2 hosts (2/255 = 0.78% efficient)
– class B with 256 hosts (256/65535 = 0.39% efficient)
• Demand for Class B the problem. So why not just assign 2
class C’s for a 50% efficiency rate?
• Still Too Many Networks
– routing tables do not scale
– route propagation protocols do not scale

Internet Structure
• Autonomous system (AS)
– Administered Independently of other ASs
– Want to be able to control various ways in which
network is configured, used, etc.
• Select their own intradomain routing protocol
• Perhaps select own link metrics, etc.
• Advantageous because it provides finer hierarchy
– Good for scalability

Subnetting
• Add another level to address/routing hierarchy: subnet
• Subnet masks define variable partition of host part
• Subnets visible only within site
Network number

Subnet Mask
• Written in dotted quad notation (like IP addresses)
• Exactly one mask per subnet (all hosts on given
subnet have same subnet mask)
• Subnet number of host (or of subnet) = bitwise
AND of subnet mask and IP address

Subnetting (cont)
• To send IP packet:
– Host performs bitwise AND of its subnet mask with
destination IP address
– If result is same subnet number as sending host, then
destination is on same subnet, so forward directly
(Note: Arp unaffected)
– Else send packet to a router to be forwarded to another
subnet
• New routing table entries:
<SubnetNumber, SubnetMask, NextHop> replaces
<NetworkNumber, NextHop>

Forwarding Algorithm
D = destination IP address
for each entry (SubnetNum, SubnetMask, NextHop)
D1 = SubnetMask & D
if D1 = SubnetNum
if NextHop is an interface
deliver datagram directly to D
else
deliver datagram to NextHop

Use a default router if nothing matches
Not necessary for all 1s in subnet mask to be contiguous
Can put multiple subnets on one physical network(?!)
Subnets not visible from the rest of the Internet

The Key
• It’s important to remember that both subnetting
and supernetting are attempts to help make routing
scale
– Even for an AS like U of R, subnetting can help shrink
routing tables, though this isn’t really a serious issue
here
– Supernetting is really intended to make Internet routing
scale – it benefits primarily the internet service
providers and backbone routers, where the real scale
problems exist.

Supernetting (CIDR)
• Called CIDR: Classless Inter-Domain Routing
• Assign block of contiguous network numbers to
nearby networks (in same AS or using same ISP)
– Aggregates routes: single entry for many networks
– E.g. Class B addresses 192.4.16-192.4.31 have same
top 20 bits, so a single 20 bit network address gets
packets to correct AS.
• Restrict block sizes to powers of 2
• Represent network numbers with(length,
value)pair
• All routers must understand CIDR addressing

A Caveat
• There is a serious issue regarding the efficiency of
CIDR. Can you determine what it is?
• Do you know what a Trie is?
• I’m putting together a handout that will explain
this, (And I may have you read the original
paper…)
