The Bay Area Backbone Monitor Project is developing software to monitor, display, and alert people on the current state of the Bay Area Backbone.
It is currently gathering requirements.
Requirements
- Measure and keep a history of inter-backbone bandwidth, latency, and jitter
- Easy to consume dashboard showing current backbone status
- SMS (or other) alerts for backbone problems
- Check links between nodes at backbone site (connected, latency, bandwidth)
- We've seen poorly configured switches significantly lower performance between nodes
- Automatically group nodes at the same site together
- Backbone is a group of sites
- Backbone links should be auto-discoverable based on the grouping of nodes in sites, and sites together
