Abstract:

In order to reduce the limits in topology inference of one parameter, a multiple parameters network topology inference method, combining end to end delay and loss, was proposed. When applying the multiple parameters based network topology inference, no additional traffic was needed; the inference method can be applied in complex networks of different loads. The multiple parameters based inference method was analyzed theoretically and validated through simulations by network simulator, version 2 (NS2). The results of simulation illustrated that the multiple parameters based inference method could infer network topology correctly when faced with different loaded networks.

Key words: network tomography, multiple parameters, topology inference
