[Mini-NDN] Topology angles and radius & Interest-Data Packets' metrics

[Saurab Dulal (sdulal)]

Hi Sergio,

Thanks for letting us know. Seems like there is a bug is the parshing script. We will fix it as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, can you try following and let me know if it works ?


[nodes]
a: _
b: _
[links]
a:b delay=10ms

Best,

Saurab

Hello again and thanks a lot for the fast answer,

 1) After running the given topology configuration with the mnndn.py and any other experiment I get the error below:
[cid:fFl-T6b4HhFfWCE0P9BG4X1 at ermis.duth.gr]

2) The local cache was not the issue and I eventually solved the problem by following the way metrics are being gathered in ndnping at the ndn-tools libraries but thanks again anyway.

Sergio

Hello, I am new to Mini-NDN and I have two issues with my experiments:

1) I want to run some instances of simple topologies with 20+ nodes but don't really get the hyperbolic coordinates' function and how to produce them for my own topologies. Is it possible or usefull in my case to disable the radius and angle parameters since I don't use hyperbolic routing strategies?



- You really don't have to use hyperbolic topology unless you are doing experiments with hyperbolic routing. And yes, you can remove radius and angles from the current example topologies<https://github.com/named-data/mini-ndn/tree/master/topologies>. Your topology can have the following structure without hyperbolic coordinates.


[nodes]
a:
b:
[links]
a:b delay=10ms




2) I have assigned to some nodes the roles of consumers and producers by running the examples provided by the ndn-cxx libraries on each one of them. What I need is a way to measure the delay of the Data Packet from the moment a node requests a packet by sending an Interest. I have already tried placing timers in the consumer.cpp but somehow the output is smaller than the link's delay so I got that wrong.



- If packet retrieval time is smaller than the link delay, it is highly likely that the packet might have been serverd from the local nfd's cache. Please enable the nfd-logs, look at the consumer's log specifically, and see if local nfd is sending back the cached data or not.



To set debug nfd log from the experiment: "AppManager(self.ndn, self.ndn.net.hosts, Nfd, logLevel='DEBUG')"



Thanks a lot,
Sergio
