    21 Now that we have reserved the nodes. Let's log on to each nodes and do experiment. [[BR]]
    22 Recall that the nodes reserved are pc73, pc81, pc55, pc47, pc84.[[BR]]
    23 pc47 is top; pc84 is bottom; pc81 is left; pc55 is right; pc73 is center. We can figure this out from the output of "createsliver" step. [[BR]]
    24 I typically draw a topology, naming the nodes correctly for quick reference; but again we can use the GENI Portal to see a graphical representation of the topology, with named nodes. [[BR]]
    25 However, the flack interface (we can launch it via GENI Portal) still does not show the interface numbers of each nodes (we might need those interface numbers when we debug our experiment). [[BR]]
    26 For example, we might want to see the traffic sent from center to top, then we need to do "tcpdump" on the interface that center uses to connect to top. [[BR]]
    27 Right now we can not do this via the flack interface. But we can see it from the output of "createsliver" step (another reason I prefer to use command line omni :-))
    28 
    29  '''Useful commands:''' [[BR]]
    30  Change the use of congestion control algorithm:
    31 {{{
    32 echo reno | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_congestion_control
    33 echo cubic | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_congestion_control
    34 }}}
    35  Change the delay/loss of a particular interface:
    36 {{{
    37 sudo /sbin/tc qdisc add dev eth1 root handle 1:0 netem delay 200ms loss 5%
    38 }}}
    39  Restore network delay/loss on nic card:
    40 {{{
    41 sudo /sbin/tc qdisc del dev eth1 root
    42 }}}
    43 
    44 
    45 
    46 '''1. compare cubic and reno under no loss/delay introduced:[[BR]]'''
    47  use default TCP congestion control (cubic) on left and right, run iperf between them: [[BR]]
    48  On left, run:
    49 {{{
    50 /usr/local/etc/emulab/emulab-iperf -s
    51 }}}
    52  On right, run (10.10.1.1 is the ip address for left):
    53 {{{
    54 /usr/local/etc/emulab/emulab-iperf -c 10.10.1.1 -t 60
    55 }}}
    56  Results: 94.2 Mbps for Cubic when there is no delay introduced

    64 }}}
    65 
    66  Let both left and right use reno as the TCP congestion control mechanism, repeat the experiments:
    67 {{{
    68 echo reno | sudo tee /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_congestion_control
    69 }}}

    80  '''Answer:''' they are the same under no loss/delay
    81 
    82 2. add 300ms delay and see how it goes: [[BR]]
    83  With Cubic, here is the result:
    84 {{{

    88  With Reno, here is the result:

    92 }}}
    93 
    94  '''Answer:''' I was hoping to see Cubic out-performs Reno but it seems that they are the same in this case.
    95 
    96  3. repeat the experiments with 30 parallel connections (-P 30 option in iperf) and see how it goes: [[BR]]

    167  The above results show that the total performance is about the same for Cubic and Reno. [[BR]]
    168  Apparently when u use multiple TCP connections the bandwidth utilization will be higher. [[BR]]
    169  But the single throughput for each TCP connection varies. [[BR]]
