NDLI: A hierarchical multicast monitoring scheme

Content Provider	ACM Digital Library
Author	Levine, Brian Neil Walz, Joerg
Abstract	Deployment of multicast routing services in corporate networks and Internet Service Providers is still tentative. Among other problems, there is a lack of monitoring and management tools and systems. Previous work in multicast management has failed to address the scalability problem present in multicast fault isolation and reporting. We propose a hierarchical, passive monitoring scheme, HPMM, that relies on a series of pre-deployed, self-organized monitoring daemons. With HPMM, fault message aggregation and local fault detection and isolation is more efficient than previous approaches. HPMM satisfies a number of design goals: scalable reporting; fault isolation; no dependencies on multicast routing for reporting; and no modifications to existing routing or diagnosis protocols are required. The tradeoff of using HPMM is it leverages a large number of software daemons deployed through out a local domain. We compare the signalling overhead of HPMM and previous work with a simulation.
