  2. Why is Network Measurement Important? • Users dependence on the network is increasing • Distributed Applications • Moving Larger Data Sets • The network is becoming a critical part of large science experiments • The network is growing much more complex • ESnet had 6 core devices in 05’, 25+ in 08’ • ESnet had 6 core links in 05’, 40+ in 08’, 80+ by 2010? • Dynamic Circuits • Network Security Issues • The community needs to better understand the network • Users must know what performance levels to expect. • Network Operators need to be able to demonstrate that the network meets or exceeds those expectations. • Application Developers must understand the ‘wizards gap’ and have access to tools that differentiate between network problems and application problems.

  3. Data Transfer times over R&E Networks RED: Something is broken! Usually TCP tuning or HW problems within 100 feet of end points. GREEN: Supported by R&E Backbones today (may have local campus challenges) WHITE: Requires special engineering.

  4. TCP Throughput Limits

  5. TCP Throughput Limits Gbps on Campus with any window size Need 1 MB Windows to Get 100 Mbps Cross country Default OS Window sizes. Is this enough For you?

  6. Scale of the Integration Challenge • Measurement infrastructure needs to: • Obey agreed-upon protocols (schema and semantics) • Be interoperable across administrative boundaries • Integrate with middleware (federated trust) infrastructure • Integrate with circuit provisioning software

  7. Scale of the Deployment Challenge • Universities, national labs, regionals, and national backbones are all autonomous • Measurement infrastructure needs to: • Be deployed widely (Metcalf’s Law) • Be locally controlled • Work well with existing local infrastructure • Integrate easily into local processes

  23. LHC Measurement Requirements 1 • Monitor up/down status of cross domain circuits • Publish status via a web services interface • Provide tools to visualize state • Generate NOC alarms when circuits change states • Monitor Link/Circuit Capacity, Errors & Utilization • Publish statistics via a web services interface • Provide tools to visualize the data • Generate NOC alarms when thresholds are crossed

  24. LHC Measurement Requirements 2 • Continuously measure delay between participants • Manage multiple sparse meshs of continuous tests and store results in an MA • Publish results via a standardized web service interface • Provide a tool to visualize the data • Provide tools to automatically analyze data and generate NOC alarms • Make scheduled bandwidth measurements across paths of interest • Manage multiple regularly scheduled sparse meshes of tests and store results in an MA • Publish results via a standardized web service interface • Provide a tool to visualize the data • Provide tools to automatically analyze data and generate NOC alarms

  25. LHC Measurement Requirements 3 • Measure & Publish Topology of both primary and backup paths • Publish statistics via a web services interface • Provide tools to visualize the data over time

  26. Directions Forward • Deploy measurement tools • To quantify the service your receiving/delivering • Set User Expectations • 100 to 300 Mbps per stream • Educate your user base • So they know what is possible
