Title: Network Performance Monitoring and Network Aware Middleware


1
Network Performance Monitoring and Network Aware
Middleware
  • Warren Matthews (OIT).

2
Networking
  • Campus
  • Backbone group maintain 160 buildings, 1600
    switches, 52000 ports.
  • Southern Crossroads gigapop (SOX)
  • Provides research and commodity connectivity for
    much of the South.
  • 10Gbps link to Abilene backbone connecting over
    200 research Universities nationwide.
  • Southern Light Rail, Atlantic Wave.

3
Network Support
  • Data Intensive Science.
  • Increasing reliance on connectivity for all
    aspects of campus life.
  • Impact can be significant.
  • Network Performance Monitoring
  • Provide the clues to solve real network problems,
    eliminate non-network issues.

4
CPR
  • Campus-Wide Network Performance Monitoring and
    Recovery
  • Hosts are co-located campus routers and building
    switches.
  • Regular Performance Monitoring
  • Set expectation.
  • Multiple views of the network
  • Especially the users experience.
  • On demand access for backbone, operations and
    security.

Results - Smokeping
Average median latency is 1.8 ms
Smokeping sends 20 pings every 5 minutes
Network is slow every 15 minutes
Peak median latency is 6 ms

Results - Nagios
Nagios monitors services such as www and email
Services do not appear to be disrupted, last
iperf achieved gt90 Mbps
Warning of high latency

Road Map
  • Analysis and alarm system
  • Plateau detector (AMP), RIPE-TT
  • How should we react to alarms?
  • Troubleshooting guide
  • Visualization
  • Front end map showing current status of all links
    mesh/tree
  • More tools
  • BWCTL (iperf), Traceroute, layer 3 and layer 2
  • Complimented with SPAM, GOAT

10
GAMMON
  • Extend CPR beyond the Georgia Tech Campus
  • Web casting project
  • Georgia Measurement and Monitoring
  • Also a hind portion of a side of bacon or
    misleading or nonsensical talk
  • SOXWatch

AMI
  • Abilene Measurement Infrastructure (AMI)
  • Part of the Abilene Observatory
  • Measurement hosts co-located with routers

International
  • Georgia tech has adopted an international focus
    in its strategic plan
  • Treat International sites just like Campus
    departments
  • Metz, London, Singapore
  • Across dedicated or shared links
  • Networks around the world are implementing
    network monitoring
  • Amsterdam
