This directory holds the results and scripts used to generate them (virtual network, metric collection, plotting) that were presented during the ICCRG meeting held during IETF-109 on Nov. 20 2020.

The [testrunner.py] script is the one responsible to drive the whole experiment. E.g. ./python testrunner.py --help for usage instructions. The full set of results is spread over results/ (raw data) and results/plots (plots (sic)).

In particular, the graphs show side by side the throughput timeseries over the experiment, as well as the per-packet queue delay.

Dependencies

These scripts must run on a kernel supporting TCP Prague, such as those that can be built from the L4S kernel tree. Note that you can grab pre-built images in the artifacts of the “Actions” tab. If you build your own kernel, make sure to enable the support for network namespaces, veth pairs, virtual bridge, …

Additionally, the host machine should have installed:
