Network Tools and Protocols Lab Series

Jorge Crichigno
University of South Carolina

2020 Western Academy Support and Training Conference


Summer Conference
June 15 – June 19

1
Overview Network Tools and Protocols Lab Series

2
NTP Lab Series
The lab series provides learners an emulated WAN infrastructure operating at high
speeds, up to 50 Gbps, and devices running real protocol stacks
It helps students to acquire hands-on skills on
• Performance and measurement tools
• Configuration of devices for high-speed networks
• Emulate scenarios using real protocol stacks

3
NTP Lab Series
The lab series can be partitioned into three parts
• Measurement (throughput, latency, packet loss) and emulation (link bandwidth,
buffer size, delay) tools
• TCP features for high speed transfers, router buffer size
• Active Queue Management (AQM) algorithms

Organization of Lab Manuals
Each lab starts with a section Overview
• Objectives
• Lab settings: passwords, device names
• Roadmap: organization of the lab
Section 1
• Background information of the topic being covered (e.g., fundamentals of TCP congestion control)
• Section 1 is optional (i.e., the reader can skip this section and move to lab directions)
Section 2… n
• Step-by-step directions
