Diseño e implementación de una red LAN de alta disponibilidad para proveer servicios de IPTV.

Abstract

The current degree work was aimed to analyze high availability networks to provide Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) services. Through the application and development of new technologies, it was possible to generate and develop services for users of small, medium, or large companies. The PROXMOX virtualizer was used to implement and generate streaming services, which integrates virtualized services with Mikrotik rb941 routers for their management in the network environment. Furthermore, the development of the network tests with physical connections and additional virtualized services was allowed. In addition, the network was configured through different routing protocols such as OSPF, IGP, and VRRP, generating high performance dynamic routing. In evaluating network performance, high-demand request techniques were used, which generated saturation and overload in the Client-Server streaming traffic. Customer-oriented quality of service data was obtained so that the service is subsequently analyzed using the curve diagram. It also caused the service to resume automatically without generating a loss in the service provision under high demand. The performance and quality of the network with the equipment used for this investigation were determined by the obtained information from the scenario. It is concluded that the drop in the service provided by the streaming provider is caused by the connection limited due to physical or external factors. However, this always maintains an acceptable level between very good to optimal with Good quality indicators for standard video service (SD) and high definition (HD) content because the equipment is ideal for interconnection and real-time streaming transmission.
