- Faisal is working with Yee.
- Arrows for tracerouts being implemented by Faisal.
- Working with Yee to get Lat long of perfSONAR host corrected.
- Zafar - deploy PerfSONAR nodes at SEECS. Second step is to find whether the same can be done at HEC on PERN's network. It is working, congratulations!
- Internet2 Joint Techs meeting at the end of Jan. Can Pak PerfSONAR nodes be up by then?
Possible projects
Wiki Markup
- Extend the NODEDETAILS data base to allow entry support for whether the host is currenty pingable. unmigrated-wiki-markup
- Extend Checkdata to provide emails automatically, see \see [https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/IEPM/Extend+checkdata+to+make+it+more+useful\]. Many of the ideas in the script node-contacts.pl are a step in this direction.unmigrated-wiki-markup
- Add *MOS and alpha to pingtable.p{*}l see \ [https://confluence.slac.stanford.edu/display/IEPM/Add+Mean+Opinion+Score+%28MOS%29+to+pingtable.pl+metrics\] Sadia will start work on it when done with HEC report, writing thesis. Sadia and Zafar are looking at this. It requires cahnges to pingtable.pl and analyzs*.pl ] Sadia will start work on it when done with HEC report, writing thesis. Sadia and Zafar are looking at this. It requires cahnges to pingtable.pl and analyzs*.pl scripts.
- Improve the PingER2 installation procedures to make it more robust. This might be something for the person(s) in Pakistan who are responsible for installing PingER2 at the Pakistani monitoring sites. They probably have found where the failures occurs. Also look at the FAQ, and ping_data.pl which has been improved to assist in debugging, could it be further improved (e.g. provide access to the httpd.conf file so one can see if it properly configured)? There are 2 students working on the PingER archive. *Is this something they could work on?*
- Fix PingER archiving/analysis package to be IPv6 conformant. Will build a proposal for an IPv6 testbed. They will try various transition techniques. A proposal has been prepared and that has been submitted to PTA. Adnan is a co PI. It is being evaluated today. A small testbed has been established in SEECS and the plan to shift some of the network to IPv6. Bilal is part of 3 students involved with PingER and they will be involved with IPv6. They are porting the PingER archive site site to using a database. They have redeveloped the archive site using Umar's documentation. They have set up a small test archive site. They have gathering, archiving, analysis. They will design a new database. They will also try a port of PingER to IPv6.
- Look at RRD event detection based on thresholds and how to extend, maybe adding plateau algorithm. Umar's algorithm did not work in a predictable manner.
