Publisher's Synopsis
The Marine Corps Tactical System Support Agency (MCTSSA) at Marine Corps Base(MCB) Camp Pendleton is currently conducting evaluation of Wide Area Network(WAN) optimization products. MCTSSA has requested a tool that will conductstateful TCP replay on large network trace files.This book lays the groundwork and establishes a framework for thedevelopment of a testing capability for measuring the efficiency of differentWAN optimization products with respect to an excerpt of real-world productionTCP flows. It also creates a software tool that will re-create the exchangeof data between two hosts from a network trace file and maintain the relativeordering of TCP packets and their TCP payload. In addition, the softwareeliminates retransmissions that would not occur with the deployment of WANOptimization gateways.
