1. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF VIRTUAL ROUTERS IN PARAVIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT Group Members: Abhishek Bajaj: MT2009013 Anargha Biswas: MT2009019 Ambarish Kumar: MT2009067 Deepak Porwal: MT2009107 Kirti Wadehra: MT2009158

2. WORK DONE  Successful installation of the guest OS’s working on Xen, acting as a para virtual environment.  Configuration of the Host OS into a router and setting up of a virtual network.  Establishment of communication between two different networks within the virtual environment  Performance evaluation using IPERF,JPERF

3. SYSTEM SETUP

4. ROUTER CONFIGURATION Steps for configuring Host OS(OpenSuse 11.1) into Router: 1)Disable the bridged(default) mode. 2)Create a private network. 3)Change firewall settings. 4)For each domU in vm directory add “bridge=br1” in the MAC address. 5)To each domU assign an IP address and route via the host.

6. HOST AND GUEST INTERACTION Host to Guest

7. GUEST-HOST-GUEST INTERACTION

8. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION  IPERF Network testing tool that can create TCP and UDP DataStream and measure the throughput of a network that is carrying them.  JPERF Graphical front end tool for iperf

9. PERFORMANCE CHART Host- Guest Network Performance Chart

10. Guest-Guest Performance Chart

11. UDP Connection Chart

12. Comparative study of Native Router v/s Virtual Router Throughput (Kbps) Packet size (KB) Throughput (Kbps) Packet size (KB)

13. WORK TO BE DONE  Comparative study of router performance with multiple routers  Comparative study of router performance in Para-virtual and fully virtual environment
