Abstract :
AKQUI, a tool for passive network traffic measurement, consists of dedicated hardware measurement equipment and a software framework for traffic analysis. The purpose of AKQUI is to gather network traffic over a long period of time and to extensively analyze the recorded traffic. It is well suited for the use in telecom network laboratories. An overview of the hardware and software of AKQUI is given, and then some measurement results obtained from recording the traffic of a multimedia (audio and video) teleteaching lecture are presented.
