SUMMARY:Efficient Network-wide Flow Record Generation - Joel Sommers\, Col

DESCRIPTION:Experiments on diverse topics such as network measurement\, ma
 nagement\nand security are routinely conducted using empirical network flo
 w\nexport traces.  However\, the availability of such traces from\noperati
 onal networks is limited and frequently comes with significant\nrestrictio
 ns.  Furthermore\, empirical traces typically lack critical\nmeta-data (e.
 g.\, labeled anomalies) which reduce their utility in certain applications
 .\n\nIn this talk\, I'll describe a first-of-its-kind tool called fs that 
 is designed to automatically generate representative network flow records\
 nas well as basic SNMP-like router interface counts.  fs efficiently\ngene
 rates measurements for a target network topology with specified\ntraffic c
 haracteristics.  The resulting records for each router in the\ntopology ha
 ve byte\, packet and flow characteristics that are\nrepresentative of what
  would be seen in a live network.\n\n
