The TCP Bandwidth-Delay Product Revisited: Network Buffering, Cross Traffic, and Socket Buffer Auto-Sizing
White Paper This paper re-examine the BDP concept, considering the effects of network buffering and cross traffic on the 'bandwidth' and 'delay' characteristics of a path. In a non-congested path, there is a certain socket buffer size (which depends on the... [19 Dec 2007]
Traffic Modelling and Network Management: A Summary of the COST-252 Activities
White Paper This paper presents the work that has been done within COST-252 in the research areas of traffic modelling and network management. The research work is part of the Working Group 2 (WG2) study, and has been carried out in the ‘Network Algorithms and... [24 Feb 2004]
Traffic Engineering and Network Management System for QoS-Guaranteed DiffServ Provisioning
White Paper Using the proposed traffic engineering functions for DiffServ-over-MPLS network, the Internet Service Provider (ISP) can easily configure Diffserv-over-MPLS traffic flows among customer's distributed sites, and can provide guaranteed end-to-end... [18 Jul 2008]
How Cisco IT Uses Analysis Module to Gather Information on Host, Network, and Application Traffic
White Paper The NAM is an integrated traffic monitoring service module that occupies a single slot in the chassis of the Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Switch. They needed to look at the application layer across the network, to manage performance and troubleshooting. [04 Mar 2008]
Encrypted Threat Protection: Network IPS for SSL Encrypted Traffic
White Paper This paper is an introduction to the benefits and techniques used to address the problems of inspecting and protecting encrypted traffic on the network. With the introduction of IntruShield v2.1, the power of network IPS now can be extended to... [08 Dec 2004]
Network Intrusion Detection: Evasion, Traffic Normalization, and End-to-End Protocol Semantics
White Paper A fundamental problem for network intrusion detection systems is the ability of a skilled attacker to evade detection by exploiting ambiguities in the traffic stream as seen by the monitor. This paper discusses the viability of addressing this... [21 May 2008]
Network Intrusion Detection: Evasion, Traffic Normalization, and End-to-End Protocol Semantics
White Paper A fundamental problem for network intrusion detection systems is the ability of a skilled attacker to evade detection by exploiting ambiguities in the traffic stream as seen by the monitor. We discuss the viability of addressing this problem by... [24 Feb 2004]
Traffic Estimation for the Largest Sources on a Network, Using Packet Sampling with Limited Storage
White Paper Subject to modest assumptions on the behaviour of the network traffic, we show that the probability of miscounting sampled packets originating from the t largest sources is negligible for small t, and we bound the probability of misranking these t... [24 Feb 2004]
White Paper: Effectively Managing Network Traffic Through P2P Caching
White Paper Tackling P2P traffic has become the number-one bandwidth burden for network providers. Today, 70-85% of consumer broadband traffic is due to the use of P2P applications such as Kazaa and LimeWire. Peer-to-Peer (P2P) file sharing has become... [19 Oct 2007]
TechNet Webcast: Advanced Client Network Traffic Analysis - Level 300
White Paper For a Systems Management Server administrator, understanding the network traffic patterns of SMS clients is an important consideration. The presenter of this webcast analyzes the typical traffic generated by an SMS 2003 Advanced Client during... [02 May 2008]
Effect of TCP on Self-Similarity of Network Traffic
White Paper When load is high and the network is overloaded, TCP congestion control can smooth out the burstiness of the aggregate stream so that traffic at the bottleneck tends to Poisson. It is now well known that Internet traffic exhibits self-similarity... [30 Oct 2007]
Methodology for the Optimal Configuration of TCP Traffic in Network Simulations Under Link Load Constraints
White Paper Given that over 90% of the Internet load is carried by TCP, most network simulation studies use TCP flows to generate the background traffic. A basic, but unresolved, question however is: how can one decide how many TCP flows to simulate from one... [19 Dec 2007]
Directing Your Network Traffic
White Paper Instead, they help one manage the existing resources so important traffic flows smoothly. As more network-centric applications are developed and deployed, the network bandwidth and latency crunch grows. [24 Feb 2004]
Generation of High Bandwidth Network Traffic Traces
White Paper High bandwidth network traffic traces are needed to understand the behavior of high speed networks (such as the Internet backbone). This paper describes three methods of generating high bandwidth network traces: scaling low bandwidth network... [11 Jul 2008]
Empirical Models of TCP and UDP End-User Network Traffic From NETI@home Data Analysis
White Paper To this end, empirical models of end-user network traffic derived from the analysis of NETI@home data are presented. The first models traffic for a specific TCP or UDP port. The second models all TCP or UDP traffic for an end - user. [19 Dec 2007]
