MMT metrics evaluation

Please check evaluation material provided in the MEASURE SVN under \Workpackages\WP5\D5.3\Evaluation material for MMT

MMT description

MMT stands for Montimage Monitoring Tool. It is a network monitoring solution based on Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) technology. MMT combines

• data capture, filtering and storage,
• events extraction and statistics collection, and,
• traffic analysis and reporting providing, network, application and user level visibility.

Through its real-time and historical views, MMT facilitates network performance monitoring and operation troubleshooting. With its advanced rules engine, MMT can correlate network and application events in order to detect performance, operational, and security incidents. An easy-to use customizable graphical user interface makes MMT suitable for different user needs. In the context of MEASURE, MMT tool can support several metrics that can be collected during the software operation phase. Extension of this tool is planned to cover more metrics during the project. For this scenario, MMT will support the following list of metrics

• Bandwidth Usage
• Number of Connected Devices
• Number of Connected Countries
• Number of Unique Protocols
• Number of Connected Users
• Network Response Time
• Application Response Time
• Number of Packets
• Parallel Sessions
• Number of Detected Security Incidents
• Number of Detected Anomalies

Evaluating MMT

Installing MMT

To be able to evaluation metrics computed by MMT, you need to install the MMT tool in the same machine where your software is running. MMT will analyse the traffic generated by your software and compute several metrics that will be stored in a mongodb database. To be able to install MMT, please download the MMT debian packages from www.montimage.com/resources/downloads/measure/20170901_MMT_MEASURE.zip

• login: measure
• pass: meA34__

Please follow the instructions provided in the MMT_Manual.pdf. If you don't want to install MMT (because of your restricted ressouces), we prinstalled MMT for you:

• in a virtual machine provided in the same package: www.montimage.com/resources/downloads/measure/20170901_MMT_MEASURE.zip
• in an amazon VM available using this link: 52.208.72.84:8088 (for the operator - login: admin , pass: mmt2nm) 52.208.72.84:27017 (for mongodb). If you would like to use this machine, please do not hesitate to send us your IP address to allow you access to the Amazon VM.

Running the MMT metrics on the MEASURE platform

The MMT metrics are already available on https://github.com/ITEA3-Measure/Measures. All the metrics name related to MMT begin with MMTxxx. You need to deploy these MMT metrics on the platform. For each instance you need to provide the way to reach the mongodb database used by MMT (IP address is needed) Please follow the instructions provided in "MMT Metrics Deployment.docx"
