In this paper we present the first set of active measurements that we have made using the
ETOMIC system. ETOMIC is a paneuropean traffic measurement infrastructure with GPS-synchronized
monitoring nodes. Specific hardware is used in order to provide high-precision transmission and
reception capabilities. Besides, the system is open and any experiment can be executed. Internet
measurements with high infrastructure requirements are now possible like one-way delay, routes and
topology changing, congestion detection and virtual path aggregation detection. We will explain the
results and how easy is to implement these measurements using the tools provided by ETOMIC, specially
the API for using the specific sending and receiving capabilities.
