Successive c-optimal designs: a scalable technique to optimize the measurements on large networks

We propose a new approach to optimize the deployment and the sampling rates of network monitoring tools, such as Netflow, on a large IP network. It reduces to solving a stochastic sequence of Second Order Cone Programs. We validate our approach with experiments relying on real data from a commercial network. Categories and Subject Descriptors: C.2.3 [Network Operations]: Network monitoring General Terms: Measurement.
