A Scalable High Performance Network Monitoring Agent for CERNET

Tags:
monitoring systems

Overview In a cost-effective way, collecting and analyzing data from such a nationwide operational network as China Education and Research Network (CERNET) is an increasingly challenging task. This paper presents the experience designing and implementing a passive monitoring agent applicable to CERNET, based on which the user is not only supporting the network Intrusion Detection System (IDS), Network Management System (NMS) for detecting and identifying signs of malicious activities, non-malicious failures, and other exceptional events in real-time, but providing anomaly information to Accounting and Billing System (ABS) so as to make it healthy. This agent is characterized by a high performance data collecting facility and a methodology of real -time data correlation and analysis.

Virtualisation: Architectual Considerations and other Evaluation Criteria

In the past several years, server virtualisation technology has moved quickly and firmly into the IT mainstream. Of the many approaches to system virtualisation available in the market today, VMware's hypervisor architecture has gained the greatest market acceptance. This paper examines the architectural issues, solution support, and enterprise readiness required when deploying such a virtualisation solution.
