Abstract:
This paper proposes a new deterministic traceback method --- chain-of-trust packet marking (CTPM). CTPM establishes a chain of trust composed of the border routers of the autonomous systems (ASes). It makes use of a new IPv6 extension header --- the traceback extension header (TEH) --- which extends the datagram size in 168 bytes at most. The TEH contains encrypted marks which trace the path taken by each IPv6 datagram from its origin to the destination. The computational load on the border routers, as well as the network latency generated by CTPM will be measured and evaluated in future studies.
