Abstract
On April 1, 2023 we stopped monitoring the traffic on our campus Internet link, nearly 20 years to the day since we first started doing so. During these two decades, we faced a vast array of issues that affected the collection, storage, analysis and backup of our monitoring data. In this paper we share some of our experiences, so that future networking researchers have an opportunity to learn from our successes as well as our many mistakes and misfortunes.

Analysis of ISP IP/ATM network traffic measurements
This paper presents network traffic measurements collected from a commercial Internet Service Provider (ISP) whose traffic is being carried over an ATM backbone network. Much of the aggregate traffic is Web-related, and thus represents a Web/TCP/IP/AAL-...
A Campus-Level View of Outlook Email Traffic
ICNCC '18: Proceedings of the 2018 VII International Conference on Network, Communication and ComputingThis paper presents a workload characterization study of Outlook email traffic, as viewed at a campus scale. Using a combination of passive and active approaches to network traffic measurement, we identify the key components in the email delivery ...
Unmasking the growing UDP traffic in a campus network
PAM'12: Proceedings of the 13th international conference on Passive and Active MeasurementTransmission control protocol (TCP) has been the dominating protocol for Internet traffic for the past decades. Most network research based on traffic analysis (e.g., router buffer sizing and traffic classification) has been conducted assuming the ...
