Abstract

Anycast is a new service in IPv6, and there are some open issues about the anycast service. In this paper, we focus on efficient and reliable aspects of application layer anycast. We apply the requirement based probing routing algorithm to replace the previous period based probing routingalgorithm for anycast resolvers. We employ the twin server model among the anycast servers, therefore, try to present a reliable service in the Internet environment. Our theoretical analysis shows that the proposed architecture works well, and it offers a more efficient routing performance and fault tolerance capability.
