Beacon Server
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The NLANR Multicast Beacon is active measurement software that monitors
|
||
|
|
the performance of a multicast session. It has two components:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Beacon Agent -- an active probing program running at each measurement machine.
|
||
|
|
A set of Beacons sends packets continuously to each other through a
|
||
|
|
multicast session, and measures the performance of the transmission. It
|
||
|
|
then reports to the Beacon Server periodically. The current version (v0.63)
|
||
|
|
is written in Java.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Beacon Server -- a central server collecting the performance information
|
||
|
|
from the Beacon Clients. The v0.8 version of the Beacon Server is written
|
||
|
|
in Perl.
