perfSONAR today (Update 20212022) — Antoine Delvaux , (PSNC)

Reviewing the conclusions of the 1st 2nd workshop we held 2 years agolast year, we'll see how perfSONAR has evolved since then and what is new today.

perfSONAR 5.0 Evolution — Antoine Delvaux (PSNC)

We'll discuss what changes you can expect from the upcoming 5.0 release.Experiences of using perfSONAR for network troubleshooting on Janet — Duncan Rand, Jisc

perfSONAR and WiFiMon — Tsotne Gozalishvili (GRENA)

Looking at perfSONAR and WiFiMon possible integration and challenges

Scaling of perfSONAR set in ASNET NREN — Eugene Prokhorenko, ASNET

Experience managing an extended number of perfSONAR installations, taking into account network speed.

perfSONAR usage in WLCG and a view at their 100 Gbps testing mesh.

pS TWAMP monitoring with Juniper routers, GÉANT Operations use case — Ivan Garnizov, FAU/DFN

GÉANT Operations experience in setting up and running a TWAMP mesh with core Juniper routers.

RNP experience with perfSONAR — Marcos Schwarz, RNP

perfSONAR is used by some core monitoring services at RNP. This talk will show RNP’s timeline and contributions to the perfSONAR initiative and our specific use cases.

As testing at speeds higher than 10G becomes more commonplace, care must be given to hardware selection, OS tuning, and network preparation in order to achieve accurate, repeatable results. This brief talk will highlight some common pitfalls of testing at 40G and beyond, as well as EPOC's experience with resolving those issues.

perfSONAR is best known as a tool for measuring network performance, and as such doesn't often cross paths with the information security community. Improvements made over the last couple of years have given it the ability to do more than it ever has, and the development team is starting to expand its reach into other areas.

This session will provide a brief introduction to perfSONAR, discuss how data produced by InfoSec organizations can help secure perfSONAR installations and cover the potential for perfSONAR's use as a platform for deploying security tools.

Microdep does measurements and analyses to discover routing quality issues. The systems event analysis engine will be presented and its potential future integration with perfSONAR discussed

In the Wild: Real-world Troubleshooting with perfSONAR — Doug Southworth, Indiana University

.

An overview of recent and ongoing perfSONAR development at the University of Michigan. Topics will include WiFi monitoring, pScheduler plugin development, mobile testpoints, and deployment automation

Central Management Server Setup — Phil Reese, Stanford University

This project illustrates, using VMs, what the document MaDDash Quick Install Guide v4 covers bit by bit.

Andy Lake put together the first version of this document several years ago. That prompted an AHA! moment for me. This project is an attempt to share that AHA! with others looking to better understand the perfSONAR and MaDDash projects.

Review of the GÉANT Performance Management Platform changes and what to expect for the future.

perfSONAR data analysis of the Performance Management Platform

A look at some new dashboards reporting perfSONAR utilisation and the characteristics of the various public deployments. The talk will also explain how those were built using the Lookup Service API.

CNaaS deployment — Magnus Bergroth, SUNET

pScheduler DotX plugin development — Kristofer Hallin, SUNET

Deployment practices for 10GE Mobile perfSONAR testpoints — Ed Colone and Craig Maxfield, Michigan University

The University of Michigan uses mobile 10GE perfSONAR testpoints to detect and troubleshoot network problems on a large distributed campus with multihomed networks.  This talk will share our hardware configuration, deployment practices, and lessons learned.

CentOS and OS Support — Mark Feit, Internet2 and Antoine Delvaux, PSNC

RedHat changed the CentOS release cycle and will be discontinuing CentOS 8 after 2021.  As CentOS was the main development and deployment OS for perfSONAR until now, we'll look at what are the possible replacements and what the community will be using in the future.  Your feedback will be requested!

perfSONAR Roadmap — Antoine Delvaux, PSNC

Looking at the perfSONAR development and release roadmap for 2021 and beyond.

This talk discusses the changes that went into the archive of perfSONAR 5.0 as well as some of its motivations and overall impacts. An overlook at the package structure of this new backend will also be presented.

perfSONAR 5.0 will enter its beta phase soon. We'll look at the migration process and at the beta testing program.

This talk discusses some of the pitfalls of perfSONAR's current regime for producing continuous streams of measurements in high-volume environments and what can be done to pScheduler's architecture to improve on it.

An update on the OS that you'll be able to install perfSONAR 5.0 on.

A glance at what the perfSONAR developers will be working on next and a place to give your suggestions.
