Abstract: For the lack of military network topology research and incomprehensive consideration of topology modeling factors, a topology modeling method of information grid network for military applications was proposed. AS-level and router level topology generation algorithms were designed. A seamless integration scheme between two topologies was proposed. Simulation experiments about meeting the conditions for the topological properties and topology model deployment strategy in network simulation environment were implemented. The simulation results show that the information grid network can be remained stable in the overall nature with considering the growth, death, “preferential attachment”, invulnerability and other factors of nodes and edges.
