network measurement tools and what characteristics they measure

[Brian Tierney <bltierney@lbl.gov>]

Hi all:

I think its time we started to use this email list for some interesting 
discussion, so I put together a web page mapping several network 
monitoring tools to what chacteristics they measure. See:

http://www-didc.lbl.gov/NMWG/NM-WG-tools.html


What tools are missing? What characteristics did I get wrong? Please 
send all comments to the list, not to just me.

I think this is a useful exercise to validate that our classification 
system works.

We should try to have agreement on this by the next GGF.

Thanks.

PS: Thanks to Thilo's student Rody for doing the background work for this!
