Explore the study of performance standards and measurement tools for network performance evaluation at a kickoff event in Cork. The session covers methodologies from IETF, ITU-T, and active/passive measurement tools for Layer 3 and Layer 4 protocols. Learn about available path bandwidth, TCP throughput, and more. Discover DFN-IPPM and RIPE-TTM examples and research activities in bandwidth estimation tools.

Measurement Systems • IPPM Measurement Systems • Online Active Measurements • Measurements of OWD, OWL, OWD, OWDJ • Data Archive • Presentation through web interface • Examples: DFN-IPPM, RIPE-TTM • Layer4 and Application Measurement Systems • Not standardized <JRA4 Meeting, EGEE Conference, Cork>, <20.04.2004> - 6
Measurement Tools • On IP layer lots of tools are exising, evolution to IPPM Measurement Systems and Metric Standardisation in IETF • On Transport Layer (Layer 4) • interesting metric for data intensive GRIDs: • ‚Available Path Bandwidth‘ • TCP Throughput • measurement methods: state of the art: • active measurements with real data streams, example ‚iperf‘. • heavy network load • Passive Measurements: • Monitoring of router interfaces and data combination • Bandwidth estimation tools: • research actvity, pilot apps available <JRA4 Meeting, EGEE Conference, Cork>, <20.04.2004> - 7
