| 402 | One fundamental requirement of any research or production network architecture is visibility: the ability to observe the performance of a network over time. This fact becomes even more evident when abnormalities in a network become prevalent. These can include classic broadcast storms from an operator's perspective or irresponsiveness of nodes within a slice from an experimenter's point of view. To date, a plethora of network tools including iperf, nuttcap, ping, Ganglia, and Nagios are available to provide much needed insights into a network's performance. However, these tools are tailored for "barebone" network components. In GENI, users are provided "slices" which will contain some subset of virtualized, programmable computing resources. For this reason, there exist an emerging class of "visibility" tools dedicated towards monitoring, within a slice context. Among other tools, we use LAMP, adapted from perfSONAR, to manage and visualize I&M services and data. In particular, we create a reference slice which spans the GENI !OpenFlow backbone to provide experimenters a somewhat "ideal" view of the network's health. Among other uses, we envision that in such cases as network connectivity irregularities within a user's slice, they can quickly refer to the reference slice as a troubleshooting guide. |
