Abstract

A Network Monitoring system is a vital component of a Grid; however, its scalability is a challenge. We propose a network monitoring approach that combines passive monitoring, a domain oriented overlay network, and an attitude for demand driven monitoring sessions. In order to keep into account the demand for extreme scalability, we introduce a solution for two problems that are inherent to the proposed approach: security and group membership maintenance.
