2. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 2 The Acreo test bed 250 test pilots FTTH, xDSL, PON

3. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 3 Measurement tool Packetlogic from Netintact Real time monitoring Deep packet/Deep flow inspection 1 => Application based detection 1 www.netintact.com

4. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 4 Measurement focus Daily pattern Top applications Top households Penetration of applications Difference between peak hour traffic mix and overall traffic mix

5. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 5 Measurement limitations 173 households 75 days Applications over public Internet (i.e.no IPTV, no IPtelephony)

6. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 6 Hourly traffic load, averaged over 75 days PEAK HOURS

7. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 7 Top 10 applications, percent of total traffic

8. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 8 Applications per category, % of total traffic

9. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 9 Penetration – top 10 applications Percentage of households using each application

10. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 10 Penetration - categories Percentage of households using each category

11. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 11 Application categories for top 10 % households Percentage of total traffic per category

12. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 12 Cumulative Distribution Function

13. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 13 Inbound vs outbound per category

14. BBEurope Geneva 2006-12-14 — 14 Conclusions > 90 % peer-to-peer, dominating the traffic pattern High penetration of peer-to-peer (>80%), A/V streaming (>95%), VoIP (60%), http (100%) Asymmetric traffic (Outbound dominating, coming from peer-to- peer applications) 10 % of the households use 67 % of the traffic No big difference between peak hour and overall traffic mix < 3 % unknown
