Newsletter Inter-domain QoS, Issue 8, March 2004 Online monthly journal of INTERMON consortia Dynamic information concerning research, standardisation and practical issues of inter-domain QoS -------------------------------------------------------------------- Special issue on detection of faults in inter-domain environment There are different faults in inter-domain environment which could influence the end-to-end connection behaviour. The network engineer should be able to detect different kinds of fault behaviour of QoS parameter values, routing events (BGP-4 protocol patterns) and traffic to obtain their patterns and to analyse their causes in the specific context. INTERMON toolkit allows to study faults based on patterns (behaviour structures) by usage of dedicated tools. We describe the detection and analysis of different kinds of patterns using INTERMON tools: - BGP-4 patterns which could impact the behaviour of end-to-end connection - QoS outlier, i.e. abnormal delay and packet loss patterns. Based on systematical measurement and analysis strategies to study causes of QoS abnormal behaviour (outliers) it is possible to relate them to discovered interdomain routing events such as BGP-4 patterns and traffic loads. -------------------------------------------------------------- Detection of inter-domain routing problems using BGP-4 protocol patterns P.A. Gutiérrez 1. Introduction to BGP-4 database analysis results BGP-4 has been the driving force in many measurement scenarios in the last phase of the INTERMON project. Due to the lack of access to private BGP-4 routing data, the project used the incomplete, but public BGP-4 route repositories. 2. Scenario definition Several measurement scenarios have been used in the INTERMON project. BGP-4 data analysis has been initially conducted for the measurement lag between Madrid and Salzburg. During the scenario analysis phase, it was observed that this measurement lag passed through the London Internet Exchange (LINX), traversing intermittently routers which donate their routing data to the RIPE Routing Repositories. 3. Dataset size reduction The data stored in the 'rrc01' directory structure of the RIPE Routing Repositories was studied for the period between the 27 th of November, 2003 and the 6 th of January, 2004. During this time, the mean size of the Routing Table Snapshot files (bview files) was around 5*10 5 records. The mean size of the sum of all daily Routing Activity files (update files) for one day was around 3*10 5 records. This huge amount of data is reduced to 11 significant routing table snapshot and 77 routing updates records for the whole aforementioned period. 4. BGP-4 patterns During the period under study, different patterns of updates could be found, depending on the way they are classified. INTERMON has classified routing updates based on the router they arrive at. Based on this first criterion, following patterns were observed 1. Intermediate AS refresh: An intermediate AS announces routes to both endpoints in a narrow time window: <Update> <Type>A</Type> <Timestamp spec="27-11-2003 17:01:00">1069948860</Timestamp> <IPPrefix>194.179.0.0/18</IPPrefix> <ASPath>286 12956 3352</ASPath> </Update> <Update> <Type>A</Type> <Timestamp spec="27-11-2003 17:01:02">1069948862</Timestamp> <IPPrefix>212.183.0.0/17</IPPrefix> <ASPath>286 8447</ASPath> In the previous sample, an AS which is situated between the endpoints and the Internet Exchange has refreshed the routing tables and has produced these advertisements as a result of the refresh. 2. Route flap: A route has become unstable and is repeatedly being advertised by a peer to the Internet Exchange during a narrow time window: 1
<Type>A</Type> <Timestamp spec="15-12-2003 08:45:43">1071474343</Timestamp> <IPPrefix>194.179.0.0/18</IPPrefix> <ASPath>13237 12956 3352</ASPath> </Update> <Update> <Type>A</Type> <Timestamp spec="15-12-2003 08:45:47">1071474347</Timestamp> <IPPrefix>194.179.0.0/18</IPPrefix> <ASPath>13237 12956 3352</ASPath> </Update> 3. Dampened route flap: In principle, the dampened route flap is a route flap sequence terminated with a route withdraw advertisement. In this case, the route flapping mechanism has been triggered and the route is put into quarantine until it is stable again. 4. Traffic Engineering techniques: A route is being advertised repeatedly with different AS_PATH attributes. The AS_PATH_PREPEND technique is used to artificially control the precedence of the route in the routing table <Update> <Type>A</Type> <Timestamp spec="11-12-2003 19:00:57">1071165657</Timestamp> <IPPrefix>212.183.0.0/17</IPPrefix> <ASPath>3356 8447</ASPath> </Update> <Update> <Type>A</Type> <Timestamp spec="11-12-2003 19:16:25">1071166585</Timestamp> <IPPrefix>212.183.0.0/17</IPPrefix> <ASPath>3356 8447 8447</ASPath> </Update> <Update> <Type>A</Type> <Timestamp spec="11-12-2003 19:46:26">1071168386</Timestamp> <IPPrefix>212.183.0.0/17</IPPrefix> <ASPath>3356 8447</ASPath> </Update> The time window of these pattern is quite broad, in order to circumvent the route flap dampening mechanism. Narrow time windows imply a high probability of route flap dampening, which would imply that the sequence ends with a route withdraw. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Detection of outlier patterns for study of abnormal QoS parameter behaviour in inter-domain environment I. Miloucheva 1. Introduction to outliers Outlier is an abnormal QoS parameter behaviour. Detection of outlier patterns in QoS parameter measurement data allows to study the structure of the abnormal QoS parameter behaviour [MAM 03]. A special tool aimed at outlier detection and analysis is integrated in INTERMON allowing to analyse abnormal behaviour of QoS parameter of end-to-end connections in inter-domain environment. Using this tool, the structure of outlier values is analysed and compared, occurrence and timely relationships of outlier patterns of different QoS parameter values are discovered. The interest of this paper is to show the usage of the outlier detection tool in packet loss and delay outlier patterns study of real measurement data of end-to-end connection in inter-domain environment. 2. User interface for study of outliers Outliers are defined related to an threshold value d thr_m. A sequence of x 1,...x i,...x n, belonging to the time series data sequence {X t } build an outlier, when for all x i, i = 1..n, hold that x i > d thr_m. For instance., threshold for delay outliers could be selected considering abnormal behaviour in context of some specific application, for instance threshold of 150 ms in respect to VoIP QoS guarantee. Thresholds could be also defined by very unexpected values, which occurs and deviate in multiple times from the normal behaviour. Packet loss threshold could be defined for some period, i.e. aggregation interval, as sum of occurred packet losses, or could be defined in form of packet loss burst, i.e. threshold for the count of consecutive packet losses. Outlier patterns are detected using a special tool with an user interface allowing to set different options for outlier pattern analysis, as it is shown in the next figure: 2
Cmbase allows usage of different kind of QoS parameter measurement data - row and aggregated per specified time interval. Different options row and aggregate could be used in outlier structure study. Usage of aggregated QoS parameter data allows to increase the speed of the discovery of outliers, but it has also some drawbacks: - implies reduced accuracy in measurement (the outlier occurrence is given in the aggregation interval range and not at exact time it occurs) - the sequence of the outliers could not be obtained from the aggregated data. The aggregated analysis is therefore useful for study of global outlier occurrence and dependencies, where the row data based outlier analysis is aimed at fine grained outlier study. 3. Scenarios for abnormal QoS behaviour study based on outliers Figure 1: Outlier user interface The outlier analysis in INTERMON is based the QoS parameter data collected per flows which are contained in the cmbase of INTERMON. There are different functions to study outlier in INTERMON which are included in the user interface: - Outlier structure per flow with optional specification of start and end time for outlier. Type of outlier pattern, i.e. decrease, increase, is discovered, which could support to detect the cause of the outlier, for instance packets delayed in a router [D20]. The function includes the discovery of relative length of outliers duration in the observed interval?t.l di =?L di,k /?t, where L di,k is the duration of the outlier pattern P di,k. - Analysis of the occurrence of the outlier patterns. Occurrence and frequency of outlier sequences in a given time interval and for a given period (daily, monthly), i.e. the number of observations of outlier patterns P di,k, k = 1..m, related to the time interval?t: F di =? P di, k /?t. - Global analysis of outliers in a spatio-temporal context or in the whole data base with optional specification of sender and receiver hosts of the endto-end connection. - Outlier structure dependencies discover related outliers found in the specified time intervals following or preceding a given outlier. - Histogram for analysis of the values of the outliers, and their assignment to appropriate buckets (ranges) bi, i = 1...k, of QoS threshold values. The design of cmbase allows to study outliers considering row and aggregated QoS parameters measured for end-to-end flows in different spatiotemporal context. We discuss detection of end-to-end delay outlier patterns for fault management using real measurement data of connection Madrid Salzburg collected in cmbase. We show different scenarios to study outliers: - Global analysis of outliers based on selected spatiotemporal contexts allowing to detect similar outliers in different end-to-end connections in inter-domain environment. A particular case is detection of outliers contained in all measurements collected in the data base. - Outlier structure analysis aimed at end-to-end delay outlier patterns showing abnormal behaviour found in the real measurement data as well as packet loss outlier patterns in real measurement data. This analysis should also show in exact way dependencies of end-to-end delay outlier patterns from packet loss patterns. The global outlier analysis per aggregation period is used to study occurrences of outliers in different connections, which is important for evaluation of the properties of connections for capacity planning and forecasting. Fine grained delay and packet loss outlier structure analysis based on row QoS parameter data we use for fault management in order to detect causal behaviour of outliers and their dependencies. 3
3.1 Global end-to-end delay analysis of QoS parameter data based on aggregated data Global analysis of QoS parameter data is usually used to discover similar outlier behaviour in different connections (flows) measured in some specific time, which could include a long time period. The global analysis function allows to detect properties of all occurrences of outliers of specific kind (end-to-end delay, packet loss) corresponding to a given threshold in their specific spatio-temporal context. In cmbase design, the spatio-temporal context of the end-to-end connection is described by the flow notion. We use the global outlier analysis functions, to see if periodical and similar outliers occur in different flows and their structure. It is also used to compare the detected outliers and to relate them to specific events found in this spatiotemporal context. Appendix 1 shows the maximum delay outliers exceeding 150 ms as found on different flows in different times on connection Madrid-Salzburg. For the end-to-end connection Madrid-Salzburg, based on QoS monitoring, was detected that an unexpected abnormal end-to-end delay parameter value over 200000 ms, ca 4 minutes, occurring 11 th of December 2003 at 04:07:00 and 04:09:09. This delay outlier is extremely unusual, i.e. in multiple times (in range of 1000 multitudes ) greater value that the normal end-to-end delay behaviour in the range of 50-100 ms of this connection. Using global analysis, it is shown based on aggregated data (300 sec aggregation interval), that the abnormal end-to-end delay QoS parameter values in the range of 3-4 minutes (over 200000 ms) were found also in other time periods (27 th of November 2003 at 21:38:00 CET). The lists of delay outliers over 200000 ms with description of their occurrence and maximal values, based on aggregated QoS parameter data describing maximum delay for all flows of the connection Madrid Salzburg is shown: Global Outlier Analysis: maxdelayoutlier value:200000000 [microseconds] Flow: 141 Conn: 194.179.25.33->212.183.10.170 Aggregate: 300sec Start/End: Wed Nov 26 16:08:00 CET 2003 Fri Nov 28 16:08:00 CET 2003 Outlier: Maximal outlier: 2.32803424E8 [microseconds] Outlier frequency: 1 Relative length: 0.0034662045 Outlier:Thu Nov 27 21:38:00 CET 2003 Max_QoS_value: 2.32803424E8 [microseconds] Distance: 105600 sec Flow: 255 Conn: 194.179.25.33->212.183.10.170 Aggregate: 300sec Start/End: Wed Dec 10 15:17:00 CET 2003 Fri Dec 12 16:02:00 CET 2003 Outlier: Maximal outlier: 2.4789904E8 [microseconds] Outlier frequency: 1 Relative length: 0.0017064846 Outlier:Thu Dec 11 04:07:00 CET 2003 Max_QoS_value: 2.4789904E8 [microseconds] Distance: 45900 sec Flow: 273 Conn: Aggregate: 600sec Start/End: Wed Dec 10 15:39:09 CET 2003 Sun Dec 14 15:39:09 CET 2003 Outlier: Maximal outlier: 2.47918688E8 [microseconds] Outlier frequency: 1 Relative length: 0.0017331023 Outlier:Thu Dec 11 04:09:09 CET 2003 Max_QoS_value: 2.47918688E8 [microseconds] Distance: 44400 sec The global analysis based on aggregated values allows to obtain information on spatio-temporal occurrence, distance (i.e. time interval) between outlier and maximum outlier value. The accuracy of outlier frequency and their relative time is restricted by the aggregation interval (in our case 300 sec). Aggregated QoS parameter values are evaluated by minimum, mean and maximum values per interval. There is also interesting to check in the aggregation interval where extreme abnormal maximum delay occurs, what are the minimum delay values which are normally due to propagation delay and router overhead (BGP-4). Minimum delay outlier on the connection Madrid Salzburg is found only on 29 th of July 2003, at 13:09 in the range of 25629716 microsecond (see Appendix 2) which could be due to changes of router and transmission overhead at this period. As in Appendix 2 is shown, minimum delay outliers over 150 ms ranging up to 578802 microseconds are found often on the connection Brazil- Salzburg. Although Brazil- Salzburg connection has longer end-to-end delay in mean, the extreme maximum and minimum end-to-end delay outlier are significant lower than on the connection Madrid-Salzburg. This is shown in appendix 3 where the maximum end-to-end delay outliers are shown for Brazil- Madrid which do not exceed 1169183 microsecond in these measurements. The observations based on the global analysis for the two connections have shown at least that there are two kinds of inter-domain connections concerning end-to-end delay outliers: - connections (like Madrid-Salzburg) with very extreme end-to-end delay outliers compared to the normal experienced delay values (in rnge of 1000 times greater outlier values comparable with normal behaviour) - connections (like Brazil-Salzburg) with smaller extreme outlier values which are greater in range of 10 times than the normal behaviour. Correspondingly, we could use the global analysis to detect abnormal (e.g. extreme ) packet loss rate and 4
packet loss bursts found in the aggregation intervals of the different connections (see appendix 4 for packet burst over 50 packets, i.e. maximum number of sequenced packet losses found in the different connections in interdomain environment) Packet loss like delay and other parameters depends on the time scale of measurements. In our measurements we use interval of 1 sec for sending of packets except in flow 273 where 20 ms was used. Therefore looking at Appendix 4 we could conclude for the global analysis of the packet loss bursts that in the connection Brazil- Salzburg prevailing are bursts in range of 50-62 packets. Very great packet loss sequences are typical for the two connections and there are typical more packet loss sequences reported than at connection Madrid-Salzburg. However, the two connections experience great packet loss bursts over 300 sequenced losses ranging to 1000 and more sequenced packet losses at different times which should be further studied. 3.2 Analysis of outlier patterns using aggregated data per flow delay and packet loss For the different cases where the extreme abnormal endto-end delay outlier over 200000 ms occurred (i.e. connection 141, 255, 273), we give the corresponding visualisation of the maximum delay outlier behaviour considering also outliers which exceed the threshold of 150 ms. The visualisation represents the great difference of the extreme outlier values to the other outliers, i.e. the extreme outlier value are given in other measurement scale, than the rest of outliers which values are close: Figure 3: Pattern of end-to-end delay outliers based on aggregated data with threshold 150 ms flow 255 Figure 2: Pattern of end-to-end delay outlier based on aggregated data with threshold of 150 ms flow 141 Figure 4: Pattern of end-to-end delay outliers based on aggregated data with threshold 150 ms - flow 273 5
The figures 3 and 4 show aggregated end-to-end delay outliers exceeding 150 ms as detected by measurements on the same connections for same 2 days (10 th and 11 th of December 2003) with different granularity of measurement intervals i.e. flow 255 interval of 1 sec and flow 273 interval of 20 ms. It is obvious that, using smaller intervals of measurements, much more outliers are detected for the same period than using greater intervals. The outlier detection depends on the measurement interval and this should be considered in the fault management strategies. For analysis of the sources of the extreme outlier of 4 minutes end-to-end delay, we checked with the global outlier analysis interface also other real measured data for connections Sao Paulo (Brazil) Salzburg (Austria) which is much more unreliable than the connection Madrid-Salzburg and found that such great outliers do not happened. Using global analysis, we detected also dependencies of the extreme and-to-end delay outliers and packet loss bursts. Very closely to the outliers are significant packet loss bursts which should be further investigated in the next scenarios using fine grained outlier structure analysis. The packet loss bursts considering 2 and more sequenced packet losses for the different flows with found extreme delay outliers are given and the packet loss burst found near the extreme end-to-end delay outlier is marked. Figure 6: Occurrence of aggregated packet loss burst outliers exceeding 10 sequenced losses flow 141 6
Figure 7: Occurrence of aggregated packet loss burst outliers exceeding 10 sequenced losses flow 255 Figure 8: Occurrence of aggregated packet loss burst outliers exceeding 10 sequenced losses - flow 273 It is obvious from the figures 6, 7, and 8, that although in the three cases, significant packet loss bursts are detected near the extreme delay outlier, there are also other occurrences of packet bursts of such magnitude not directly related in timely manner with the extreme outliers over 20000 ms. Similar to end-to-end delay outlier, the packet loss bursts, i.e. consecutive packets lost, is dependent on the granularity of measurement, i.e. time intervals in which it was measured. Therefore, the packet bursts near to the delay outlier of 11 th of December measured in the flow 255 are significant smaller, i.e. 248 sequenced packet losses according 1 second measurement interval, compared with flow 273 with 24757 packet loss and the interval of measurement 20 ms. Therefore, packet loss burst should be considered as measurement metrics for comparison, when the measurement interval is exactly given or when instead of consequent losses packets, the duration of packet loss burst is assumed. The conclusion of the global outlier analysis of connection Madrid Salzburg is that extreme great delay outliers are specific for this connection and their cause should be studied related to some events of this connection. 7
The analysis of the outliers using the aggregated QoS parameter data is based on the maximum QoS parameter values evaluated in the given aggregation interval. The accuracy of the results depends on the aggregation interval. If this interval is in the range acceptable for application quality study, then the usage of outliers based on aggregated QoS parameter data is preferred because of the performance benefits looking in smaller sized tables of the data base. Further analysis is aimed to provide fine grained outlier structure detection using per packet QoS parameter measurement data, i.e. row data. 3.3 Analysis of outlier values distributions using histogram Using the outlier data mining tool, it is possible to do a histogram of the found maximum end-to-end delay outlier values considering the aggregated or row QoS parameter values of all measured flows. We start with histogram based on aggregated QoS parameter data considering measurements of all flows. The histogram based on 5 buckets is shown in figure 9: Figure 10: Detailed histogram of delay outliers over 150 ms of measured flows using aggregated data Here is shown based on more detailed analysis the decreasing number of outliers starting with 400 ms, very small number in the range of 600-1000 ms and the increase of outlier occurrence at extreme values. Interesting is also the study of outliers based on packet loss and burst packet loss based on aggregated QoS parameters and global measurement data analysis:. Figure 11 shows the histogram of bursty loss: Figure 9: Histogram of delay outliers over 150 ms of measured flows using aggregated data The prevailing outliers of the connection assuming threshold of 150 ms (selected in respect of VoIP application) are in the bucket range near 150 ms until 400 ms, than there is decrease. Again, starting with very extreme values there is some increase. We could obtain more detailed histogram of delay outliers over 150 ms by selecting greater number of buckets, as for instance it is shown in figure 10: Figure 11: Histogram of bursty loss using aggregated data 8
Figure 12 shows the packet loss based on aggregated data: extreme outlier of 200000 ms, different scales are used to represent all outliers of the end-to-end connection. Figure 12: Histogram of packet loss using aggregated data There are similarity in the behaviour of the values of bursty and packet loss. However, there are ranges where the packet loss is high, but there is no bursty loss, i.e. there is frequent loss, but not sequenced loss. Here is again interesting, that extreme values of packet loss and bursts of losses (i.e. highest burst) are significant. 3.4 End-to-end delay outlier structure analysis The analysis based on row QoS parameter measurement data allows to discover: - outlier structure : increasing, decreasing, plain [MHG 03] - exact occurrence of outlier - exact time interval between outliers. The outlier analysis based on row QoS parameter measurement data aggregated data gives insight in exact structure of the outlier behaviour, but could imply long data base access times, because of the significant mount of QoS parameter data per packet. This analysis is preferred in fault management scenarios where causes for outlier behaviour should be studied s well as timely dependencies of outliers. The next figure gives the end-to-end delay structure description of the flow 273 with extreme outlier over 200000 ms. Because of the big differences between the typical outliers ranging from 150 to 600 ms, and the Figure 13: End-to-end delay patterns of outliers of flow 273 The extreme outlier has a string decreasing pattern over the whole 87 packets building it, i.e. each packet of this outlier has smaller delay that the preceding packet. Immediately after the last packet of this outlier there is a packet loss in time interval comparable with the end-toend delay of this outlier with maximum value of 247918684 microseonds. Decreasing outlier structure with dependent packet loss could be explained with stopping of transmission in some device (see, [D20] is given the more detailed explanation. We found string decreasing and increasing patterns typical for this flow. The next figure shows a preceding outlier starting Thu Dec 11 02:31:13 CET 2003 with Maximum end-toend QoS value: 745317 [Microsec] and Length 65, which has also a strong decreasing pattern over the whole range of 65 packets. 9
Figure 15: Patterns of end-to-end delay outliers of flow 255 Figure 14: Decreasing pattern of end-to-end delay outlier found at 02:31 It should be noted that the differences between the sequenced values in the decreasing patterns are in range of 8-12 ms. Traffic patterns of 20 ms between sent packets like flow 273 are typical only for specific kind of real time applications like VoIP. Applications requiring services in more coarser traffic patterns will not experience such patterns. For this purpose we show the patterns obtained from flow 255 which was measured every second. Instead of decreasing pattern in the case of the outliers of 247918684 and 745317 [microseconds] maximum value, the measurement tool has reported only one value in the two cases. In addition, we could see that a lot of outliers occurring at the same time and experienced by the fine grained measurements in flow 273 have not been experienced in flow 255. The structure of the outliers of connection 141 is derived from measurements done in 1 second intervals. We see therefore small number of outliers. The extreme end-to-end delay values are experienced with sequence of decreasing outlier structures (3 outliers). Figure 16: Outlier end-to-end delay patterns of flow 141 Interesting fact is that besides the extreme outlier there was only two other small value outliers above 150 ms in the two day period. 10
The conclusion from the discussed outliers in the particular measurements is: - outlier detection and patterns depend on the measurement scale or granularity - there are very extreme outliers which occurred at different time interesting string decreasing patterns indicating that some event stopped the transmission. 3.5 Packet loss analysis The end-to-end delay outlier behaviour could be compared with packet loss and burst loss patterns occurred in the corresponding time. The detailed analysis of packet loss includes: - packet loss length patterns - patterns describing occurrences between packet losses - detection of specific time intervals of packet losses in order to relate them to other QoS parameters like end-to-end delay. Using the outlier data mining interface of INTERMON toolkit we could detect all packet losses, their occurrence (start, end), length of consecutive lost packets, and distances between the packet losses. Appendix 5 show the detailed description of packet loss patterns for the flow 141. We see there is a significant amount of packet loss with prevailing packet losses of 1 and 2 packets. In addition there is a relationships between the detected packet loss the extreme end-to-end delay outliers of flow 141 over 200000 ms. Immediately after the extreme endto-end delay outliers are packet losses: Figure 17: Packet loss distribution of flow 141 The distances between packet losses are also of interest and are studied The next figure shows the outlier structure analysis for the aggregated QoS parameter data, measured in November including similar extreme outlier value. Packet loss: Thu Nov 27 21:31:52 CET 2003, Thu Nov 27 21:32:01 CET 2003, Length 8pkts Distance: 11430,105852 Packet loss: Thu Nov 27 21:32:01 CET 2003, Thu Nov 27 21:32:05 CET 2003, Length 3pkts Distance: 1,105856 Packet loss: Thu Nov 27 21:32:05 CET 2003, Thu Nov 27 21:35:42 CET 2003, Length 216pkts Distance: 1,106073 In order to see the concrete distribution of the packet losses for this flow, we obtain the histogram of packet loss lengths: Figure 18: Packet loss distance distribution of flow 141 For comparison of packet loss distributions we look at the other flows (i.e. 255 and 273), where extreme end-toend delay outliers were encountered. 11
The corresponding packet loss analysis for flow 255 is given in figure 19: Figure 19: Packet loss distribution of flow 255 It is shown the prevailing occurrences of small packet losses, especially packet loss of 1 packet length. However, there are significant packet losses ranging from 40 sequenced lost packets and over. Figure 20 shows the distribution of packet loss distances of flow 255: Figure 20: Packet loss distance distribution of flow 255 The buckets are selected to show the numbers of packet loss distances starting by 1 and increasing the distances by 1 until 100 packets distance. The figure shows that the occurrence of packet loss distances decrease rapidly with increase of distances to 100 packets, and at very great packet loss distance, the occurrences again increase The detailed packet loss analysis has also shown that immediately after the extreme outlier, there was a significant packet loss. Similar patterns are also shown in the analysis for flow 273 measured at the same time like 255, but in much lower time intervals. 4. Towards efficient analysis of abnormal QoS behaviour The analysis of abnormal QoS behaviour by detection of outliers is a powerful approach which could be used in different fault management scenarios detection of QoS problems caused by link failures, traffic congestion, inter-domain routing, intrusion and denial of service attacks. In INTERMON scenarios, we have shown relationships between end-to-end delay and packet loss outliers. Further systematical monitoring and analysis strategies of end-to-end connections in inter-domain environment should allow to study dependencies of discovered QoS outlier patterns and patterns describing inter-domain routing behaviour, i.e. BGP-4 protocol patterns. The important understanding during development of outlier data mining tools in INTERMON is that more efficient technologies are needed to store and access the outlier data. More efficient data base design based on time series data concepts is required for further reduction of redundant data storage. For instance, timestamps of packets sent as time series data in equal intervals should not be stored. This will reduce stored data and increase performance. There is a need for efficient data base for outlier analysis in spatio-temporal context based on storage of the abnormal data per end-to-end connections allowing optimisation of time point and interval queries of outliers. The spatio-temporal design will reduce the overhead in the browsing of whole data base to find the flows and their temporal dependencies belonging to the end-to-end connection. Because the outliers are very small portion of the total measured packets, the data base design should contain only the outlier packets. The measurement system should be designed in the way to store the outliers and their patterns in dedicated data base. Currently, the way to use real measurement data from cmbase, which is storing all possible performance information to the sent packets in a 12
data base is very slow approach in the case of fault management scenarios where only outlier values are of interest. Further research direction on efficient data base design is consideration of multiple measurement granularities (scales) [BJW 00] in order to provide efficient operations to manipulate and query these data along the temporal dimensions. 5.
