  3. Active measurement/analysis • Led by Tony McGregor (tonym@nlanr.net) • Focus on site-to-site across high performance networks • Attempt to deploy FreeBSD-based AMP machines at all HPC sites • almost 70 machines currently deployed and operational • Currently RTT, topology, and loss; user/event driven throughput • Current work provides base for: • validation of active measurement techniques • comparison of HP service provider internal measurements with site-to-site measurements Network Analysis Infrastructure -- http://www.nlanr.net

  6. Major goals for AMP • Have a joint research/engineering agenda for the high performance community • third party site-to-site measurements between NSF supported HPC sites • to complement the intra-HPNSP measurements • to provide a common point of understanding of performance issues between HPNSPs and users • to work towards user-user and application-application performance assessments • to provide a base for further research • consider a more scalable, probably hierarchical system Network Analysis Infrastructure -- http://www.nlanr.net

  7. Current measurements • We currently assess: • round trip time (RTT) • packet losses • topology (traceroute) • throughput • across all sites. • We are extending to all participating NS supported HPC sites: • NLANR provides the measurement machine and administration • the local site physically deploys the machine Network Analysis Infrastructure -- http://www.nlanr.net

  8. AMP architecture • typically full mesh across AMP machines • some “destination-only” exceptions Active monitor Web browser Active monitor Analysis machine Active monitor Cichlid vis Other target Analysis machine • central data repository and visualization machines • data available via: • web interface to results • an NLANR developed 3D visualization tool (Cichlid) • raw data Network Analysis Infrastructure -- http://www.nlanr.net

  16. 3D visualization, bar graphs • shows RTT as a moving time series • uses OpenGL tool that allows viewing from different perspectives, zoom, fly-through, etc. (developed by Jeff Brown) Network Analysis Infrastructure -- http://www.nlanr.net

  17. 3D visualization, terrain map • shows RTT as a rendered surface • rugged (noise reduced) terrain implies high and variable RTT; a rough network Network Analysis Infrastructure -- http://www.nlanr.net
