Abstract
BCube and DCell propose data transfer using source routing for data center networks (DCNs). One potential problem with their approach is the use of two different address spaces, one for identifying end hosts and another for routing. In this paper, we propose a variant of BCube called BCube-IP based on an IP address hierarchy. BCube-IP overcomes the limitations of using two different address spaces in BCube. Along with the improved performance of source routing, we demonstrate the use of location-based routing for data transfer in BCube-IP.
