Monitorización activa de altas prestaciones mediante la plataforma paneuropa ETOMIC

Abstract

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.
