To see the difference between the traceroute and rtt's for multiple days , we developed the traceroute archive. It can be accessed using teh the traceroutearchive.cgi script. It displays traceroute from a monitor node to monitoring a monitored node for any three days (which can be selected from a drop down menu). It checks loops within the traceroute and shows the changes observed in a link for the requested days. It is currently available from the 5 PingER monitors including SLAC to world wide nodes monitored by SLAC at http://www-wanmon.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-wrap/traceroutearchive.cgi and also from pingER Seecs to all monitored sites within Pakistan at http://pinger
Apart from SLAC, Historical traceroutes are available from the following monitors, from Feb 2014 onwards:
- www-wanmon.slac.stanford.edu
- pinger.cern.ch
- maggie1.seecs.edu.pk
...
- pinger.ictp.it
- pinger.fsktm.um.edu.my
Traceroute Archive Flow At SLAC
Following are scripts used for the traceroute archive
...
1. Collection of Traceroutes
1.1 autotrace.pl
This script can be found at /afs/slac/package/pinger/autotrace.pl. It saves all traceroutes from the SLAC Pinger nodes to its monitored sites and runs as cron job once everyday.cronjob once every day on pinger.slac,stanford.edu under user pinger..
It uses for example Input = http://www-wanmon.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/nph-traceroute.pl?target=www.fapesp.br to make the traceroute
It gets the list of hosts to traceroute to by using wget and pingtable.pl.
Output = It is saved in /afs/slac/package/pinger/chktrace/2011_08_24/www-wanmon.slac.stanford.edu_to_www.ab.kg_2011_08_28 as :
