Abstract:

   This document describes the control plane of the path-aware, inter-
   domain network architecture SCION (Scalability, Control, and
   Isolation On Next-generation networks).  One of the basic
   characteristics of SCION is that it gives path control to SCION-
   capable endpoints.  In fact, endpoints can choose between multiple
   path options, enabling the optimization of network paths.  The SCION
   control plane is responsible for discovering these paths and making
   them available to the endpoints.

   The main goal of SCION's control plane is to create and manage path
   segments, which can then be combined into forwarding paths to
   transmit packets in the data plane.  This document first discusses
   how path exploration is realized through beaconing and how path
   segments are created and registered.  Each SCION autonomous system
   (AS) can register segments according to its own policy - it is free
   to specify which path properties and algorithm(s) to use in the
   selection procedure.  The document then describes the path lookup
   process, where endpoints obtain path segments - a fundamental
   building block for the construction of end-to-end paths.
