Abstract :
[en] Recently, a first step towards a highly distributed IP-level topology dis- covery tool has been made with the introduction of the Doubletree al- gorithm. Doubletree is an efficient cooperative algorithm that allows the discovery of a large portion of nodes and links in the network while strongly reducing probing redundancy on nodes and destinations as well as the amount of probes sent. In this paper, we propose to reduce more strongly the load on destinations and, more essentially, the communica- tion cost required for the cooperation by introducing a probing stopping rule based on CIDR address prefixes.
