Abstract

It is critical to obtain accurate network information for network management and the improvement of network service quality. Network measurement is an efficient method to obtain such information. Now the network measurement models and algorithms have become a research hot spot; and the core problem is how to cut down the cost of device deployment and reduce the effects caused by measurement. In this paper, we discuss the problem of measure station selection and measure assignment in active IP network, and propose a greedy algorithm to select stations and a method based on link usage cost to assign measures. Simulation results show that our method is efficient in station selection and measure assignment.
