  Abstract

In this paper, algorithms are proposed to define and calculate analysis parameters using SNMP MIB-II on TCP/IP based Internet. To provide a user on TCP/IP network with QoS it is required that management activities are based on performance and fault related parameters. Analysis parameters by MIB-II, which si Internet standard, are defined and algorithms to calculate these parameters are proposed. In MIB-II, system, interface, ip, and snmp groups are analyzed according to Case diagrams and then analysis parameters, which are line utilization, error rate in link, I/O packet rate of a interface, I/O packet loss rate of a interface, I/O traffic, I/O nonunicast packet rate, I/O packet rate of a system, I/O packet loss rate of a system, resource load rate of a system, packet forwarding rate, routing fault rate, and utilization of management traffic, and its calculation algorithms are provided. To show availability of these algorithms, some results are shown and analyzed about routers on real environments. These algorithms for calculating Internet analysis parameters can give effects to analysis and diagnosis of a TCP/IP network for a manager and also, it is expected to provide QoS for Internet users.
