Testing IP Differentiated Services Implementations

چکیده
Diffserv architecture is pointed out as a promising solution for the provision of QoS in the Internet in a scalable manner. The main objective of this work is to test, evaluate and discuss, from a practical point of view, two platforms for implementing Diffserv services: one developed at ICA/EPFL for the Linux OS and the other based on Cisco Systems routers. After comparing the configuration strategy in each platform, QoS related functionalities (e.g. classification, marking, policing, shaping) are tested and assessed. In particular, the implementation of EF and AF PHBs is analysed. The capacity of providing bandwidth guarantees and performing adequate traffic conditioning is evaluated as well as the impact background traffic has on delaying high priority traffic. Moreover, the computational effort Diffserv puts on routers is also measured in terms of

Security testing of session initiation protocol implementations
The mechanisms which enable the vast majority of computer attacks are based on design and programming errors in networked applications. The growing use of voice over IP (VOIP) phone technology makes these phone applications potential targets. We present a tool to perform security testing of VOIP applications to identify security vulnerabilities which can be exploited by an attacker. Session Ini...

Much attention has recently been given to the Differentiated Services (Diffserv) approach to provide Quality of Service for IP networks. This packet-marking based approach to IP QoS is attractive due to its simplicity and ability to scale. Two of the most popular services proposed for the Diffserv approach are the Assured and Premium Services. In this work, prototypical implementations of Diffs...
متن کاملAn Overlay Architecture for Live Video Distribution over Heterogeneous Ip Networks
The main concepts to attain, when delivering live contents to thousands of Internet users over IP networks, are scalability and heterogeneity. Scalability points to the use of IP Multicast routing protocols, however the low dissemination of IP Multicast in current Access Networks also makes unicast an indispensable solution. In terms of Quality of Service (QoS), the Integrated Services (IntServ...
متن کاملA Novel Fuzzy Logic Base Scheduling Mechanism for Service Differentiation in IP Networks
Quality of Service (QoS) refers to a set of rules or techniques that help the network administrators use the available network resources optimally to manage the effects of congestion and to treat the applications according to their needs. The differentiated services architecture (DiffServ) allows providing quality of service to users. The major DiffServ premise is that individual flows with sim...
