A brief summary of DVTS application
DVTS features Hardware is based on consumer products Software is free and open source Useful for serious applications Special demand for network support 30Mbps, single video stream
Network challenges AS2 AS3 AS1 Bad cabling Wrong speed access Bad cabling Wrong speed Wrong duplex mode firewall Bandwidth bottle neck
The experience Rehearses are essential before the real event. Can we use measure tools to make the life easier?
A proposal for DVTS-specific measurement tools
Design goals Test without the help of the counterpart Simulate the real DVTS behavior without using the DVTS system Built a common language between the application users and the network administrators Find the bottleneck of the network
The architecture Basic tool Access interface Dvmcast sender and reflector Dvping sender/receiver Access interface web Find the server alone the path AS path and DNS server Server registration Manual or automatic
The operation modes of basic tools dvmcast DVTS system DVTS file Sending mode Reflecting mode (1) Reflecting mode (2) dvping
The technical specification dvmcast and dvmping: -p snd_port (8000) -rp rcv_port (8000) -t period (sec) -bw bandwidth (bps/kbps/Mbps) host -4|6
Web interface
Sending mode
Reflecting mode (2)
Find the server (1) Internet QS1 (DNS) BGP IP->ASN QS2 (DNS) MS1 MS2 MS3 MS4 MS5 Internet AS=Y AS=U AS=V AS=Z AS=X User A User B QS1 (DNS) BGP IP->ASN QS2 (DNS) Data Base ASN->IP
Find the server (2)
Server Registration (1) Manual registration Automatic registration (under development)
