METROPOLIS
IP monitoring for
the Internet and its services
METROPOLIS was
supported by RNRT (French Network for Research in Telecommunications). It
started in September 2001 and ended in February 2005. METROPOLIS dealt with
designing new methodologies for IP networks monitoring. The original approach
of this project consisted in combining active and passive measurements.

The
METROPOLIS platform (still alive) is located at the RENATER edges, RENATER
being the French network for education and research. It consists of 3 kinds of
monitoring / measurement equipments:
-
DAG boxes for microscopic passive monitoring
-
QoSMOS boxes for macroscopic passive monitoring and applicative
classification
-
RIPE TTM boxes for active measurements. These boxes also run NIMI and
PANDORA, as well as MetroMI, a software specifically developed in the framework
on the Metropolis project
