Abstract
The Access Grid (AG) for collaborative environment exploits IP multicast, which is quite a promising technology for sharing network bandwidth. IP multicast however, faces lots of challenges such as unreliable data transport and immature network infrastructure. As a step to improve reliability and stability in IP multicast, it is essential to properly monitor and debug multicast networks. In this paper we introduce MEET (Multicast debugging toolkit with End-to-End packet Trace), an user-oriented multicast debugging toolkit for AG. MEET provides proactive ways of debugging multicast reachablility and measuring end-to-end delivery statistics. We are sure that MEET supports multicast users with a simple yet extensive view of end-to-end multicast reachability and delivery statistics.
