Abstract

IP traceback is an important task in Internet security area. Techniques have been developed to deploy in pure IP network, but, to date, no system has been presented to use the facility of MPLS in MPLS-enabled network. We present Overlay Logging, a technique combines the hash based logging (SPIE) and the convenience of setup overlay network in MPLS network. Our system can achieve a relatively lower false positive rate than SPIE, needs less hardware investment, and reduces the storage pressure. It is impervious to multi-path routing in the network. What's more, the network overhead and configuration cost of our system is low.
