OWAMP testing event
The OWAMP testing event was held on 15-22 November 2005. The tests were performed remotely between interested parties.
Results
The main goals of these OWAMP tests were:
- To test the communication functionality between J-OWAMP and Internet2 OWAMP
- To test the integration of J-OWAMP and CMToolset
The results are summarised as follows:
- Parts of J-OWAMP were successfully integrated to the CMToolset Architecture
- CMToolset supports the functionality to start J-OWAMP Sever and SessionReceiver (similar to owampd from the Internet2 OWAMP implementation)
- Therefore "owping -t" was needed as SessionSender and ControlClient
- To fully implement the functions of a Server, CMToolset needs to be extended to report the results to a FetchClient
- CMToolset directly stores the results to its database
- The port of the Session Receiver is not correctly updated by the CMToolset implementation
- J-OWAMP suits to the CMToolset architecture, therefore the integration of new version (J-OWAMP 2.0) to CMToolset is planned
Raw data of the measurement results have been published in the MOME database (http://www.ist-mome.org/database/).
Open issues are:
- Testing of J-OWAMP 2.0 and OWAMP2.0 and future versions
- Evaluation of delay measurement accuracy
- Performance tests
- Extending the functionality of CMToolset Architecture to support also the functions of SessionSender, ControlClient and FetchClient
