There are a wide range of networked applications for which it is appropriate to provide SNMP monitoring of their network usage. This includes applications using both TCP/IP and OSI networking. This document defines a MIB which contains the elements common to the monitoring of any network service application. This information includes a table of all monitorable network service applications, a co...

Network Monitoring is a complex activity that is based on the coordination among distinct local activities: those that use monitoring results, those that implement monitoring activity, and other that act as intermediaries. We illustrate a comprehensive view of a Network Monitoring Architecture, starting from the demands of security and scalability, and define, to give a practical perspective to...

We present the first monitoring study aiming to characterize the usage of the I2P network, a low-latency anonymous network based on garlic routing. We design a distributed monitoring architecture for the I2P network and we show through a one week long experiment that we are able to identify 32% of all running applications, among web servers and filesharing clients. Additionally, we identify 37%...

The net neutrality issue is far from being only a theoretical and legal playing field. Internet Service Providers (ISPs) all over the world deploy middleboxes able to filter, shape, and poison certain traffic flows. We propose an end-host based monitoring service capable of detecting such biased network behavior. By using this service users will be able to find out about the discriminatory prac...

This paper presents an architecture for monitoring 10 Gbps networks, drawing on experience from a current 1 Gbps implementation. The architecture performs full line-rate capture and implements on-line analysis and compression to record interesting data without loss. The use of the monitoring and analysis system is demonstrated along with the presentation of several initial findings made possibl...

water resources local governance can is one of the most influential collaborative approach in the water resources management. social monitoring of local stakeholders plays an important role in planning, resources management and water efficient governance. therefore to achieve this goal, social network analysis has been considered as an approach of analysis of the relationship among local stakeh...

Network monitoring and inference is an increasingly important component of intelligence gathering, from mapping the structure of the Internet, to discovering clandestine social networks, as well to information fusion in wireless sensor networks. Indeed, several international conferences are dedicated to the nascent field of network science. This article considers a particularly salient aspect o...

This paper studies the maximum level of cooperation that can be sustained in sequential equilibrium in repeated games with network monitoring, where players observe each other’s actions either perfectly or not at all. The foundational result is that the maximum level of cooperation can be sustained in grim trigger strategies. If players are equally well monitored, comparative statics on the max...

Network monitoring is becoming more and more important as more Internet Service Providers and Enterprise networks deploy real-time services, like voice and video. Network operators need to have an up-to-date view of the network and to measure network performance with metrics like link usage, packet loss and delay, in order to assure the quality of service for such applications. Obtaining accura...
