The DataTAG WP3 initiative focuses on performance validation, monitoring, and optimization of high-speed intercontinental networks. With tools designed for extreme Lambda environments, this project will assess application performance using innovative monitoring techniques. Key tasks include performance validation, end-user monitoring, and application optimization over a range of protocols. Insights from experiences with SURFnet Lambda are shared, and ongoing developments in diagnostic libraries and performance tools ensure that we meet the challenges of high-speed data transfers effectively.

  1. DataTAG - WP3 Objectives, activities and progress by UvA: Wim Sjouw, Hans Blom, Jason Lee, Cees de Laat INRIA: Mathieu Goutelle CERN: tbd

  2. Contents • Objectives • Tasks • Activities • Experiences with SURFnet Lambda • Pointers

  3. WP3 objectives • Bulk data transfer and application performance monitoring: • innovative monitoring tools are required to measure and understand the performance of high speed intercontinental networks and their potential on real Grid application.

  4. Tasks in WP3 • Task 3.1. Performance validation (month 1-12) • Create, collect, test network-tools to cope with the extreme Lambda environment (high RTT, BW) • measure basic properties and establish a baseline performance benchmark • Task 3.2 End user performance validation/monitoring/optimization (month 6-24) • Use “out of band” tools to measure and monitor what performance a user in principle should be able to reach • Task 3.3 Application performance validation, monitoring and optimization (month 6-24) • Use diagnostic libraries and tools to monitor and optimize real applications to compare their performance with task 3.2 outcome.

  5. Task 3.1 Performance validation • Performance Test Tools • http://carol.wins.uva.nl/~jblom/datatag/wp3_1/ • Lambda's are a Layer 1-2 environment • use end to end traffic generating tools • not ICMP based tools since those need routers in the path • tools must work in Gigabit environment • Netperf • TCP bulk transfer, UDP unusable (no shaping) • modifications made to enhance IPv6 support • Iperf • TCP and UDP shaped bulk transfer • lightweight multiple streams test support • IPv6 support • modifications made to introduce TCP shaping, debugging

  6. Task 3.1 Performance validation (cont’d) • UDPmon (by Richard Hughes-Jones) • each packet contains seq. # / time stampinfo receiver can deduce: • # packets lost • # packets out-of-order • UDP bandwidth • very precise timing • not intrusive • tool is in continuous development

  7. Task 3.1 Performance validation (cont’d) Tools under investigation which are either not released yet or incomplete: • Pathload : estimate available bandwidth • Magnet : network software performance • Netprobe : one way delay + variance, jitter

  8. Task 3.1 experiencesusingNetherlight SURFnet Lambda AMS-CHIfull duplex GE  2.5 Gbps SDH , 100 ms RTT • single stream TCP: max. throughput 80 - 150 Mbps, dependent on stream duration • similar for BSD and Linux and different adaptors • UDP measurements show effects of hardware buffer-size in ONS equipment when assigning lower SDH bandwidths,see: www.science.uva.nl/~wsjouw/datatag/lambdaperf.html

  9. Task 3.2 End user performance validation/monitoring/optimization • Toolset for monitoring • Re-use as much as possible WP7 stuff • rTPL(end user performance monitoring): • http://195.169.124.55/rtpl/netherlight/table/ • MRTG (to monitor router interfaces): • http://195.169.124.55/mrtg/ • SmokePing (history and statistics of rtt’s): • http://195.169.124.55/smokeping/smokeping.cgi?target=SARA • Not so ideal tools (for the time being): • Cricket (to monitor large number of router interfaces): • http://195.169.124.55/cricket/grapher.cgi?target=%2Fssr-interfaces

  10. Task 3.2 and 3.3 • set up tool RTPL for end user performance check, can be expanded when DataTAG lambda becomes available. See:http://195.169.124.55/rtpl/netherlight/table/ • task 3.3 will most probably use netlogger, did not yet start. • all info can also be found via:www.datatag.org

  11. Summary of status • Tools have been investigated, selected and where necessary adapted to benchmark and characterize Lambda networks • http://carol.wins.uva.nl/~jblom/datatag/wp3_1/ • New tools appear and need to be studied to add to the set • Influence layer 1 and 2 infrastructure properties on TCP throughput is under study on SURFnet Lambda testbed and NetherLight • Monitoring setup is underway, inclusion of WP7 toolset is next step • Application performance monitoring and optimization should start soon • Preparation for iGrid2002 which also gives us: • a 2.5 gig connection Amsterdam-CERN • for duration of iGrid2002 10 Gbit/s connection Starlight-Amsterdam by Level3! • WWW.IGRID2002.ORG in Amsterdam 23-26 september
