Abstract

In the real-time network scenario, the network service providers need to ensure the quality of service (QoS) parameters. Network performance metrics (NPMs) are needed to measure the network performance and guarantee the QoS parameters like availability, delivery, latency, bandwidth which are also important for researchers and network equipment designers. One-way active measurement protocol (OWAMP) and two-way active measurement protocol (TWAMP) are the two active measurement approaches to measure the network performance. OWAMP measures one-way metrics and TWAMP measures two-way metrics. In this paper, currently prevalent active measurement methodologies and implementation of TWAMP approach are discussed. IPv6 TWAMP implementation for wireless networks is proposed, to obtain metrics, namely round-trip delay, two-way packet loss, jitter, packet reordering, packet duplication, and loss patterns.
