Abstract

We showed earlier that, when aggregating network traffic measurements, starting from a certain aggregation window, a stable distribution is formed, which is approximated with a high accuracy by a lognormal law. Despite the fact that, in general, the results of network traffic measurements agree with this law, in the region of the small values of traffic intensity and transmission rate of network packets, there is a noticeable discrepancy between this law and the measurements. In this study, we discuss the problem of a peak arising in the low-intensity region during the aggregation of network traffic measurements. Taking into account the location of the peak in question, we called it the “zero channel” (ZC)

中继通道网络流量特征分析：零通道

摘要

我们在前面已经表明，在聚合网络流量测量时，从某个聚合窗口开始，会形成一个稳定的分布，该分布由对数正态定律以高精度近似。尽管总体上网络流量测量的结果与该定律一致，但在流量强度和网络数据包传输速率较小的区域，该定律与测量结果存在明显差异。在这项研究中，我们讨论了在网络流量测量聚合过程中在低强度区域出现峰值的问题。考虑到所讨论峰值的位置，我们将其称为“零通道”（ZC）
