La seguretat de l'encaminament entre dominis és fonamental per al funcionament d'Internet, ja que impedeix redireccions de trànsit no desitjades. El protocol actualment utilitzat, el Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), té problemes de seguretat. En aquest projecte, provarem i avaluarem IPChain, una solució que usa blockchain proposada per resoldre aquests problemes de seguretat. Avaluarem la viabilitat del projecte per resoldre aquest problema. Per fer-ho hem dissenyat i analitzat un conjunt d'experiments que intenten emular les condicions reals. També trobarem colls d'ampolla i altres problemes que impedeixen que el prototip funcioni de manera eficient.

Inter-domain routing security is of critical importance to the Internet since it prevents unwanted traffic redirections. The currently used protocol, the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), is proven to have security issues. In this project, we will test and evaluate IPChain, a blockchain solution proposed to solve these security issues. In this thesis, we will evaluate the feasibility of the project for solving this issue. To do it we designed and analyzed a set of experiments that try to emulate real-life conditions. We will also find bottlenecks and other issues that prevent the solution from performing in an efficient way.
