Visualisation tools

The two of the three Authentication Mechanism described in DJ1.2.4 is available for authentifying a visualisation tool or a user behind a visualisation tool to a perfSONAR web-service. This first mechanism is a client in a Web containEr (WE), for visualisation such as VisualPerfsonar and the second one is for the Automatic Clients (AC) such as CNM.

TCMP UI is a visualisation allowing a user to trigger the capture of packet traces from multiple point. The ability to capture packet traces is of importance to the PERT. A test scenario was sent to the PERT to gather their feedback. This tool is using the Lobster framework.

Web-Services

The RRD MA has been extended to provide information on errors and drops. The errors and drops were requested by the PERT (last Cambridge meeting) and by the NOC (Utrecht APM meeting). PerfsonarUI can access and display those new information.

The Authentication classes, allowing java web-services to communicate with the Authentication Service, has been developed. It has been successfully integrated in the SSH/Telnet MP.

Hades storage system and visualisation have been updated based on minor bug reports and features enhancements.

perfSONAR v2.1 was released. It contain the E2EMon MP from JRA4 as new product and improvements to commands configuration during SSH/Telnet MP installation as well as enhancements to bundle installer.
