Known sequence experiment for master's thesis 'Measuring Loss and Reordering with Few Bits'.

Installation

Python 3.6 is required.

  1. (Optional) Installing python-libtrace is required for running the router node.
  2. Install the required modules with pip install -r requirements.txt.
  3. Add the src folder to the PYTHONPATH using export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:~/path/to/sequence/src

How to run?

The files for running the client, router and server nodes are nodes/NODENAME/main.py. The command line arguments of the nodes are documented in the respective files.

Example: Running client & server locally

Executing the following commands in two terminals runs a client with source port 5634, destination port 3996 at a sending rate of 1000. The server, accordingly, listens on destination port 3996.

src/nodes/client/main.py 5634 3996 -r 1000
src/nodes/server/main.py 3996

Example: Running client & server on separate machines

In order to run the nodes on separate machines, the sending interface of the client has to be set as an environment variable:

export CLIENT_DOMAIN_CLIENT_ADDR=X.X.X.X

Likewise, the receiving interface of the server has to be set as an environment variable:

export SERVER_DOMAIN_SERVER_ADDR=Y.Y.Y.Y

Then, the server and the client can be started on the respective machines:

src/nodes/client/main.py 5634 Y.Y.Y.Y:3996
src/nodes/server/main.py 3996
