Query: Implementation and Deployment of a Distributed Network Topology
  Discovery Algorithm   In the past few years, the network measurement community has been interested
in the problem of internet topology discovery using a large number (hundreds or
thousands) of measurement monitors. The standard way to obtain information
about the internet topology is to use the traceroute tool from a small number
of monitors. Recent papers have made the case that increasing the number of
monitors will give a more accurate view of the topology. However, scaling up
the number of monitors is not a trivial process. Duplication of effort close to
the monitors wastes time by reexploring well-known parts of the network, and
close to destinations might appear to be a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS)
attack as the probes converge from a set of sources towards a given
destination. In prior work, authors of this report proposed Doubletree, an
algorithm for cooperative topology discovery, that reduces the load on the
network, i.e., router IP interfaces and end-hosts, while discovering almost as
many nodes and links as standard approaches based on traceroute. This report
presents our open-source and freely downloadable implementation of Doubletree
in a tool we call traceroute@home. We describe the deployment and validation of
traceroute@home on the PlanetLab testbed and we report on the lessons learned
from this experience. We discuss how traceroute@home can be developed further
and discuss ideas for future improvements.
