Since its introduction in 2006--2007, Paris Traceroute and its Multipath Detection Algorithm
(MDA) have been used to conduct well over a billion IP level multipath route traces from …

multiQ is a passive capacity measurement tool suitable for large-scale studies of Internet
path characteristics. It is the first passive tool that discovers the capacity of multiple …

Several traceroute probe methods exist, each designed to perform better in a scenario
where another fails. This paper examines the effects that the choice of probe method has on …

Initially, packet forwarding in the Internet was destination-based--that is, a router would
forward all packets with the same destination address to the same next hop. In this paper …

Data collected using traceroute-based algorithms underpins research into the Internet's
router-level topology, though it is possible to infer false links from this data. One source of …

Knowledge of Internet paths allows operators and researchers to better understand the
Internet and troubleshoot problems. Paths are often asymmetric, so measuring just the …

Many systems rely on traceroutes to monitor or characterize the Internet. The quality of the
systems' inferences depends on the completeness and freshness of the traceroutes, but the …

Traceroute is widely used, from the diagnosis of network problems to the assemblage of
internet maps. However, there are a few serious problems with this tool, in particular due to …
