TL;DR

The Nimrod architecture is designed to accommodate a dynamic internetwork of arbitrary size with heterogeneous service requirements and restrictions and to admit incremental deployment throughout an internetwork.

Abstract

We present a scalable internetwork routing architecture, called Nimrod.The Nimrod architecture is designed to accommodate a dynamic internetwork of arbitrary size with heterogeneous service requirements and restrictions and to admit incremental deployment throughout an internetwork.The key to Nimrod's scalability is its ability to represent and manipulate routing-related information at multiple levels of abstraction.
