End-to-end microflow performance measurement of IPv6 traffic over diverse wireless topologies

Published: 02 August 2006 Publication History

Abstract

In order to facilitate resource accountability in environments with rapidly and unpredictably evolving traffic dynamics, it is of key importance to develop mechanisms capable of ubiquitously measuring different performance aspects of the diverse operational network traffic. In this work, we used an IPv6-based measurement mechanism to assess the end-to-end performance experienced by a set of IPv6 microflows as these were routed over operational W-LAN and W-WAN network configurations. We present measurements of unidirectional delay and packet loss experienced by bulk TCP and CBR UDP traffic during different days of the week.
