Jonathan,
Could we make use of the existing test servers (running netperf) for that
demonstration? How hard is the protocol to fake in Javascript?
Not having coded a stitch of this, I *think* it would require the following:
- Web page on netperf-xxx.bufferbloat.net that served out the javascript
(required to get around cross-domain protections within the browser)
- Javascript function to connect back to that host on port 12865 and fake out
the netserver with TCP_STREAM or TCP_MAERTS request
- Javascript that's efficient enough to source/swallow full-rate data stream
- Cloning the code from https://github.com/apenwarr/blip to make fake pings
from TCP requests
Anyone know more than I do about this?
Not about the javascript stuff, but your high level description of the
netperf side sounds plausible. There are a few control messages netperf
will exchange with netserver that if you want to leverage a remote
netserver will need to be included. You can run a netperf command with
a higher debug level to see them.
