1. Pinger and IEPM-BW activity at FNAL By Frank Nagy FTP/CCF Computing Division Fermilab

2. Measurements from –37 monitors (Beacons) in 15 countries –Over 790 remote hosts –79+ countries –Over 10000 monitor-remote site pairs –Measurements go back to Jan-95, FNAL’s archive started at 1997 –Reports on RTT, loss, reachability, jitter, reorders, duplicates … PingER deployment Countries monitored –Contain 78% of world population –99% of online users of Internet –Mainly A&R sites

3. PingER Measurement Methodology Measurement host admin choose remote hosts of interest –sends 21 pings each 30 mins to each chosen remote host –Records RTT, loss, jitter, unreachable, out of order … –Records data in local cache Archive host gathers data from measurements hosts regularly (at least daily) –Archives, analyzes and generates reports from data –Make reports and data publicly available via the web Requirements: –Remote host: need a host accessible to pings, and a contact in case host does not respond (almost no effort) –Monitoring host: a low end host to make measurements, file space for cache, admin to install toolkit, choose remote hosts, build configuration file, respond to archives in case unable to get data & keep it running (<<10% FTE) –Archive site: probably about 20% of an FTE

4. Archive Monitoring Remote FNAL Reports & Data Cache Ping Archive WWW Monitoring Reports & Data Monitoring HTTP 1 monitor host remote host pair SLAC Uses existing ubiquitous Internet ping infrastructure, no tools to install Hierarchical vs. full mesh, each monitoring site chooses remote sites Lightweight – low network impact (100bits/s/path) – no special machines – trivial to add monitored sites Measurement Architecture
