This paper presents a new protocol to self assign node IDs in an Underwater Acoustic Network (UAN). The proposed solution, termed DIVE for Distributed Id assignment and topology discoVEry, is fully distributed and self-adaptive. While assigning the node IDs, additional information is shared to discover the other nodes in the network, the type of these nodes (static or mobile), and the number of hops...
The proliferation of under-sea and terrestrial fibre optic cables in Africa is leading to an evolution of the interconnection among Africa's National Research and Education Networks (NRENs). To fully monitor and track this evolution, NREN stakeholders and researchers need to continuously run active network measurements to map the inter-NREN topology. However, active topology measurement tools, such...
With interoperation and interconnectivity of intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) in smart substations increasing, switch networks in smart substations are gradually becoming difficult to manage and maintain. This paper presents a dynamic topology discovery method tailored for smart substation networks based on MAC address matching, which goes beyond topology discovery algorithms for conventional...
Industrial communication networks become more complex and real-time networking protocols primarily developed for them become more common in our daily lives as technology evolves. As a result of this, topology discovery and diagnostic mechanisms developed for industrial communication networks come into prominence. One of the most well-known industrial communication networks, PROFINET is the basis of...
Aiming at the limitations of existing methods of IPv6 network topology discovery, this article proposes and implements a novel algorithm of an IPv6-based topology discovery system for the next generation Internet. With the combination of network topology information discovered by general protocols and by routing protocols, the system can discover the IPv6 network effectively not only in accuracy and...
The current progress of network technique and the complication of network structure make administrators must spend more time and mind to maintain the system and the network under normal operation. With continuously increasing dependence on the network, it seems to be a knotty matter to know how to effectively manage all equipments on the network and to make sure they whether run it rightly or not...
Recently, the characteristics of traceroute probe have been widely studied in the field of Internet topology discovery, which helps researchers to understand the role of Traceroute tool better, such as sampling bias, marginal utility and so on. In this paper, we study three raw datasets of traceroute probe of different platforms and observe an interesting phenomenon: in the process of one probe, every...
To improve the intelligentability and usability of internet equipments and server management, effective and precise discovery of internet topology is becoming a very important part of internet management and its arithmetic and relizational techniques are one important element in evaluating the performance of internet management system. Most internet equipments nowadays support SNMP protocol, and this...
Nowadays, network is becoming more and more complicated. Topology discovery becomes a hot research point as it is of high importance to network management. Current topology discovery methods have been investigated in this paper, which can be classified as common-protocol-based method, router-protocol-based method and SNMP-protocol-based method, all of which are specifically discussed in the following...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) technology has become as a promising scalable solution to offer high-quality streaming multimedia to a large number of consumers at reasonable cost. Many existing systems have been deployed based on IPv4 network environment [1], [2]. IPv6 protocol has been seemed as a core component in Next Generation Internet (NGI) and the P2P streaming scheme which can be implemented in a IPv4...
Summary form only given.Router topology discovery is indispensable in the research of computer network, but existing models based on collected traces have several shortages, resulting in that the accuracy and completeness of the generated topologies can not meet the further research needs. This paper presents an enhanced topology discovery model-ETDM, which solves some of the problems by new techniques...
While the source routing mechanism has a unique advantage on enhancing the coverage of IPv6 network topology discovery, it is considered to be inefficient in the current IPv6 network topology discovery technology. Research into the nature of source routing mechanism reveals the fact that the total number of targets to be probed grows rapidly during the progress of topology discovery. This means probing...
