hipercontracer 2.2.6-1
Package Information
| Description | High-Performance Connectivity Tracer (HiPerConTracer) High-Performance Connectivity Tracer (HiPerConTracer) is a Ping/Traceroute measurement framework. HiPerConTracer refers to the core measurement tool, which performs regular Ping and Traceroute runs among sites. Key features include: - Multi-transport-protocol support (ICMP, UDP); - Multi-homing and parallelism support; - Handling of network load balancing; - Multi-platform support (currently Linux and FreeBSD); - High-precision (nanosecond) timing (Linux software and hardware timestamping); - Integrated library (shared/static) for third-party software (libhipercontracer); - Open-source C++ codebase focused on performance and portability with only a small number of dependencies. Furthermore, the HiPerConTracer framework provides additional tools for obtaining, processing, collecting, storing, and retrieving measurement data: - Viewer Tool: Displays the contents of results files. - Results Tool: Merges and converts results files (e.g., to CSV format). - Sync Tool: Copies data from a measurement node (vantage point) to a remote collector server via RSync/SSH. - Reverse Tunnel Tool: Maintains a reverse SSH tunnel from a remote measurement node to a collector server. - Collector/Node Tools: Simplify the setup of nodes and collectors. - Trigger Tool: Triggers measurements in the reverse direction. - Importer Tool: Stores measurement data into SQL (MariaDB/MySQL, PostgreSQL) or NoSQL (MongoDB) databases. - Query Tool: Queries data from a database and stores it into a results file. - Database Shell: A simple command-line front-end for the underlying database backends. - Database Tools: Helper scripts to join database configurations into an existing DBeaver configuration. - UDP Echo Server: A UDP Echo (RFC 862) protocol endpoint. This package contains the core HiPerConTracer measurement program. |
