TCP throughput measurements test results performed by BWCTL tools have been integrated within the Hades visualisation system. The results of traceroute between deployed Hades system are also available.

RNP (Brasil NREN) MA is running. A total of ten Measurement Archives have been deployed, amongst them, seven by European NRENs (http://monstera.man.poznan.pl/jra1-wiki/index.php/RRD_type_MA_Service_Installations).

A perfSONAR services monitoring solution has been set-up. Its aims is to monitor the existing perfSONAR services deployed so far and trigger alarms as soon as one get down. http://netmon.acad.bg/smokeping?target=svc.prfs.RRDS.GEANT

A perl script which converts Cricket configuration files into perfSONAR XML MA configuration files has been produce with the aim of making the deployment of perfSONAR easier to the user.

Designs on the integration of a netflow tool within the perfSONAR architecture have been provided and are being finalised. Netflow collector and of netflow visualisation tools are being investigated to chose the ones that will be integrated to provide a reference implementation within perfSONAR.

A JRA1 meeting was held in Berlin. The focus was on the current status of the work and on the future plans. A paper on the Metric Concatenation Framework has been written for the TNC 2006. A joint meeting was held with JRA3 and JRA4 on L2 monitoring. Common basis for the monitoring of L2 status circuit have been laid and will be integrated in the perfSONAR schema.
