IEPM & PingER
 IEPM
 Monitoring network connectivity and End-to-end performance for
sites involved in High Energy Nuclear and Particle Physics
 PingER – Ping end-to-End Reporting
 Used to monitor end-to-end performance of Internet links

Nearest Abroad Neighbor – NAN
An analysis which is of special interest to the
part of the world which does not have a dense
communication infrastructure (South America,
Africa, Asia).
NAN tell us the shortest path (in terms of
smallest RTT) to another PingER site abroad
from selected location

Nearest Joint Point
NJP
• Related Projects: Nearest Abroad Neighbor
Group members:
Fawad Nazir
Faran Javed
•Suggest to change routing policies for
improved faster routing
• Purpose to reduce the path after NJP

TULIP – IP Geo Location
 Geolocation of an IP address
 Uses the principle of
Trilateration
 Takes RTT measurements
from various landmarks around
the globe.
Group members:

Implementations
 Fully functional prototype available at
http://www.slac.stanford.edu/comp/net/wan-mon/tulip
 Nearly all development challenges have been met & 90 % of the
issues are resolved
 A stripped down version of the API is available
 Small issues keep up coming. Many parsers for results analysis &
extraction have to be written
 The code is well documented
15
Topology Discovery & Analysis
 LAN & WAN
Topology discovery
 SNMP
 Single-ended
probes & without
SNMP
Gathering
