P6-DetNet

This project involves the practical implementation of two papers published by the Deterministic Networking Working Group of the IETF: RFC 8964: Deterministic Networking (DetNet) Data Plane: MPLS RFC 9025: Deterministic Networking (DetNet) Data Plane: MPLS over UDP/IP Both implementations include two of the most intriguing techniques provided by the DetNet concept: Explicit routes: Assignment of unchanging preset routes, ensuring that data flows always follow the same paths. In this implementation, these routes are established based on static routes defined in the rules/ folder. PREOF service functions (Packet Replication Elimination and Ordering Functions): They handle the replication of packets across different network paths, eliminate duplicate packets, and order the packets before they reach their destination. The topology used to validate the implementations is based on that defined in the draft-ietf-detnet-mpls-over-ip-preof-07 and is shown below. Depending on the direction of communication, the functionality each node carries out varies.
