  2. Motivation I am a member of the COST TMA Action IC0703 (see www.tma-portal.eu) Look, I have a nice algorithm I do not know … Doesitwork for IPFIX?

  3. Solution • We should have a tool to generate a IPFIX trace from packet trace and use both of them … • … so that anyone can compare both packet and IPFIX algorithms • The conversion should be easy and flexible • It should work for many operating systems • We have TracesPlay (http://tracesplay.sourceforge.net/ ) • a tool reading packet traces which work for different operating systems

  4. Nice To Have • Direct MATLAB connection • Support for lots of different protocols • Support for numerous IPFIX fields • It should be easy to add a custom statistics not necessarily IPFIX one • On-line generating – artificial IPFIX node

  5. Whole system IPFIX , Different samplig methods ETH, 802.1q, 802.11, ICMPv4, IPv4, TCP, UDP, RTP, H264, NetFlow v1,5,7,8,9 ......................... Formats: PCap, ERF, TSH, FR, FR+, SNOOPv2 On-line with lib PCAP From a buffer Binary Data Reading and Analyzis Statistics Generator Data Providing CSV Extend Software MATLAB

  6. Trace2flow Options • -IPFIX <value> the flow definition • –c the first column of CVS file contains the column name • -e show error • –r <file name> list of the traces to analyze • –o <fields name> list of the IPFIX fields • –s <sampling methods> OneToOne, OneToN <value>, RandomFromN <value>, FirstFromTimeIntercal <value> • –w <file name> output file, out.txt by default

  7. Supported fields

  8. Examples trace2flow.exe -e -s OneToOne –IPFIX 1 -r test.pcap -o IPFIX.inPkts IPFIX.inBytes IPFIX.MinTTL -w out_OneToOne.txt trace2flow.exe -s OneToN 25 –IPFIX 3 -r test.pcap -o IPFIX.IP.src IPFIX.inBytes IPFIX.MaxTTL –c -w out_OneToN_3.txt MATLAB: Data = trace2flow(-s OneToN 100 –IPFIX 1 -r test.pcap -o IPFIX.inPkts);

  9. A Simple Example • Packet trace captured within one of subnetworks in campus network in AGH University of Technology in Krakow: • amount of packets: 1273722 • packet duration: 180.8632 s • trace size: 100MB • average throughput at the time of traffic capturing: 3.45 Mb/s

  10. Throughput Estimation • Two representative count-based methods were examined (as they are used in Cisco routers): • Deteministic Sampling (every n-th packet) • Random Sampling (1-out-of-N packet)

  11. Throughput Estimation - Results • Underestimation of the throughput for sampling rates lower than 10%

  12. Throughput Estimation - Results • For sampling rates lower than 10% the time required for processing all packets is lower than 2s in the particular case
