2nd Workshop on Large-Scale Monitoring of Broadband Internet Infrastructures (LOBSTER)
16 May 2006, 14:00-17:30, Catania, Italy
in conjunction with the TERENA Networking Conference 2006
This workshop presented the pilot Internet monitoring infrastructure being developed in Europe by the LOBSTER project. It showed how passive monitoring can be utilised on multi-gigabit links, outline anonymisation techniques, and demonstrated the new applications developed for characterising traffic. It also looked more widely at the challenges of high-speed passive monitoring, and the research possibilities in this area.
