Deliverables
WP0: Requirements Analysis
- D0.1: Requirement collection and analysis
This presents the findings about the current state of monitoring, expectations and requirements of organisations that were identified as those that can benefit from the monitoring infrastructure to be implemented by LOBSTER.
Published: 10 April 2005 - D0.2: Acceptable Use Policy for the Fair Sharing and Use of the Infrastructure
This presents the need for an acceptable use policy (AUP) for the LOBSTER infrastructure, a short review of AUPs for similar systems, the results from the answers on AUP-related questions in the LOBSTER questionnaire, and a proposed AUP document for LOBSTER.

WP1: Monitoring Infrastructure Design
- D1.1a: Anonymization Framework Definition
This provides a complete framework for applying anonymization policies within the LOBSTER infrastructure. It includes an extended review of the state-of-the-art in most frequently used anonymization policies and tools, a complete anonymization architecture, the related protocol field anonymization functions, an anonymization policy editor tool, and a list of example anonymization policies.
Published: 5 July 2005 - D1.1b: End-Users' Feedback on Anonymization
This describes the feedback on anonymization provided by potential users of the LOBSTER infrastructure. The feedback was gathered by means of a comprehensive web-based survey. The main aim of the survey was to find out what kind of anonymization functions are desired by the end users and, hence, should be supported by LOBSTER.
Published: 21 November 2005 - D1.2: Common Access Platform Definition
This describes the common access platform, which provides a uniform interface for applications to interact with the distributed monitoring sensors. This platform is realized mainly by the Distributed Monitoring Application Programming Interface (DiMAPI), which enables remote monitoring and enhances the network flow abstraction to include traffic captured at several geographically distributed sensors. In addition, in order to make our design future proof, we try to anticipate possible bottlenecks of the DiMAPI architecture and outline the design of a Distributed Execution Environment (DEE) as part of our Common Access Platform, that would help alleviate the foreseen problems.
Published: 5 July 2005 - D1.3: First-tier Encryption Definition
This proposes architecture for Tier-1 hardware anonymization of selected packet header fields.
Published: 21 July 2005 - D1.4: Integrated Architecture Definition
This describes the integrated architecture for the LOBSTER infrastructure is described. Furthermore, the relation with the GN2-JRA1 activity is discussed and integration options are presented

This describes the implementation of the core components of LOBSTER.
Published: 25 January 2006 - D2.2: Prototype implementation
This describes the implementation of the core components of LOBSTER.

WP3: Monitoring Infrastructure Deployment
- D3.1: LOBSTER Applications
To show the capabilities of the LOBSTER infrastructure this consortium has developed a number of applications that can assist ISP's and NREN's in making sophisticated measurements on the Internet. In this document these demonstration applications are described and information is included on how to obtain the applications for test and evaluation purposes.
Published: 7 August 2006 - D3.2: Deployment - First Phase
This document describes the deployment of LOBSTER probes by the project partners and testing of the core components.
Published: 15 November 2006 - D3.3: Deployment - Second Phase
This document describes the deployment of LOBSTER probes by the project partners and organizations outside the project.
Published: 2 July 2007 - D3.3b: Overview of potential applications using the LOBSTER system
This document describes the new potential LOBSTER application or new potential extensions to existing LOBSTER applications.
Published: 20 December 2006 - D3.4: Integrating a LOBSTER Sensor with DeepSight
This document focuses on the integration of NEMU with a Reference Engine Filter (REF) that is part of the Symantec DeepSight framework. If NEMU were detecting a sufficient number of malware variants more quickly than the baseiine components of the Reference Engine, then NEMU could be a very valuable extension to the threat collection infrastructure powering DeepSight and other services.
