AMP

AMP (Active Measurement Project) is a project originating at NLANR designed to constantly perform active measurements between a mesh of specialist AMP monitors. These measurements are used to both provide a view of long-term network performance and to detect notable network events. The AMP system consists of several components: the measurement software which runs on the monitor machines and conducts the AMP tests; the reporting software which reliably sends the test results back to a central server; and the graphing software which plots the results and presents them in an accessible fashion.

AMP is not currently ready for public release, but anyone interested in using it should contact us at contact@wand.net.nz and we may be able to provide you with a copy of the current version. The major reason for this is that more documentation work is required for a release to stand on its own and we would like to make sure that those using it are supported.

All the data that WAND collect through AMP is publicly available at erg.wand.net.nz, both as graphs and raw data.
