Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊管理研究所 === 86 === Internet traffic style remains unknown in current environment. This is the reason why more circuit deployment is the only solution to bandwidth insufficency. Lack of wide area network traffic measurement and analysis always leads to the embarrassment of performance assessment. Further, even the bandwidth usage efficiency can not be evaluated.Traditional network measurement and analysis always base on the metric of packet. Since different applications behave differently, it is not feasible to explain the attribute of applications totally on the basis of packet volume.This research is going to introduce the concept of "Flow". We are going to use the flow model as new metrics for traffic measurement and analysis. Comparisions to the legacy packet based methods will be given.To solve the difficulty of wide area network measurement and analysis, we propose a system suitable for not only wide area networks but also local area networks. Design and implementation issues are described in the thesis.
