Noise Reduction Techniques for Network Topology Discovery
Topology discovery techniques based on a network tomography approach can be successfully adopted in almost all scenarios, in that they infer the internal characteristics of a network without any cooperation from the internal nodes. Out of the many tomographic topology discovery techniques proposed in the literature, those based on the use of packet ...

Ethernet topology discovery without network assistance
This work addresses the problem of layer 2 topology discovery. Current techniques concentrate on using SNMP to query information from Ethernet switches. In contrast, we present a technique that infers the Ethernet (layer 2) topology without assistance from the network elements by injecting suitable probe packets from the end-systems and observing where

Improved Algorithms for Network Topology Discovery [PDF]
Topology discovery systems are starting to be introduced in the form of easily and widely deployed software. However, little consideration has been given as to how to perform large-scale topology discovery efficiently and in a network-friendly manner. In prior work, we have described how large numbers of traceroute monitors can coordinate their efforts

The impacts of weak links on topology discovery process in large-scale wireless multi-hop networks
In wireless multi-hop networks, especially large-scale wireless multi-hop networks, obtaining the network topology is of vital significance. In fact, in both proactive and reactive routing protocols, before establishing an appropriate end-to-end route ...
