Abstract-Many projects have sought to measure the dynamics of the Internet by using end-to-end measurement tools. The RADAR tool has been designed in this context. It consists in periodically tracing the routes from a monitor toward a set of destinations, IP addresses chosen randomly in the Internet. However, the localization of these destinations on the topology has a significant influence on the observed dynamics.We study the dynamics observed when the destinations are localized at a country scale. We show that this localization may lead to observe a different dynamics. The local dynamics observed in our case is mainly a routing dynamics whereas the loadbalancing dominates the entire Internet dynamics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
