7.4 The Real ISP’s Italian Backbone Network7.4 The Real ISP’s Italian Backbone NetworkThe final test of the LP optimization model has been performed over the Italianpart of Tiscali International Network (TINet) [21].The network is composed of 18 nodes and 54 arcs with different maximum capacitythat, at the moment of tests, ranges from 1 Gbps to 2.5 Gbps.The traffic matrix, composed by 306 flows, has been built thanks to the willingnessand the collaboration of the ISP’s network operators and managers.The resulting model is made of 1279 variables and 1402 constraints and it hasbeen solved either as GRP or taking care of the survivability constraint. Theobtained results have been compared with the “default” configuration, with theISP’s IS-IS metrics configuration, those used by the network operator in normalworking condition, and with the IS-IS metrics obtained from the metaheuristicoptimization process.Figure 7.9: Tiscali International NetworkThe characteristics of the TINet network are summarized in Table 7.6, whilethe whole Tiscali International Network logical topology is depicted in Figure 7.9.75
