Abstract

Internet Service Provider (ISPs) need to measure large-scale end-to-end network performance for the purpose of monitoring customers' performance and providing network devices efficiently. This paper proposes, an IP performance measurement infrastructure that utilizes users' PCs as beacons. Probing packets are sent and received among the beacons under the control of a central server. The central server calculates the set of measurement paths that maximizes network coverage under constraints of users' PCs. The infrastructure is experimentally implemented and evaluated through simulation and real-world experiments and its considerable potential for practical network operations is demonstrated.
