It reminds me of Django book's early days when it was being written ( http://www.djangobook.com ). Each paragraph could be commented upon and it led to a really fantastic collaboration.

You're welcome. There's a Mininet AMI too if you want to get started quickly!

The first two programming assignments can be found here: http://www.scs.stanford.edu/10au-cs144/lab/reliable/reliable... . The 2012 assignments were the same.

It can mean different things to different people. If you're a distributed systems developer, you can use Mininet to create a topology and emulate the interaction of 100s of, say, bittorrent clients. If you're a graduate student in networkin

No, but Mininet uses dummynet like features in Linux: netem [1], htb [2], etc. [1] http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networ... [2] http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/manual/userg.htm

Yes, Mininet is used for networking courses in Stanford/Princeton. There are a number of programming assignments readily available for Mininet: https://github.com/mininet/mininet/wiki/Assignments

I have not tried Dynamips so I cannot comment much. But Mininet uses features in Linux: veth pairs, bridge, OpenVSwitch, etc. to glue together a network. If Dynamips works with the above components, it's highly likely to work with Mininet

Yes. Virtual hosts are in isolated containers with their own pid and network namespace. So each host can have its own routing table, IP address, etc. without interfering with one another.

Actually, when the project started they used Flash to set up connections. I guess the name stuck on. :-)

On a related note, I found this ebook ("Mindfulness in Plain English") an interesting read, clearing misconceptions about meditation and how it is related to mindfulness. http://www.urbandharma.org/udharma4/mpe.html

That's right -- bufferbloat introduces more problems than "solving" incast. One of the main reasons for incast is the synchronised bursts+backoffs causing senders to timeout. As the CMU paper pointed out, the 200ms min-RTO is too conserva

Ooh, lock contention on the hardware CAM table or the software in the switch that handles these updates? The first time I am hearing about this bug :-) Thanks a lot for sharing this bug story!

Nice writeup, but it leaves me curious about the root cause: For some reason, our switches were unable to learn a significant percentage of our MAC addresses and this aggregate traffic was enough to saturate all of the links between the acc

I tend to think the space race as a very smart viral campaign. The space is not free; it lasts only for two years, and then you have to start paying for it.
