Viewing the Network Performance ( new in gigEnn )

  • You can see the bandwidth results with many different tools

    ethereal.com

  • trafshow
    • an easy way to see which machines are overloading the network

  • netstat
    • generic netstat cannot be used for xplot ( graphs )

    • Use our modified and enhanced netstat
      • gigEnn# netstat.nn

  • ntop
    • invoke ntop in one xterm window
      • gigEnn# ntop

    • additionally, ntop requires apache and mozilla for viewing:
    • mozilla localhost:5000

    ameslab.gov NetPIPE = Network Protocol Independent Performance Evaluator


  • tcpdump
Graphs
  • mrtg
    • too much (snmp) headache for fancy graphs ??

  • gnuplot
  • xplot
    • gigEnn# netstat.xplot.nn
    • gigEnn# xplot /tmp/netstat.xplot.data

  • osdl.org ^ TCP Probe

  • plot jitter
    • differences in receive time values
