Appl. No.:

15/473046

Inventors:

- West Lafayette IN, US

International Classification:

H04L 12/26

H04L 12/741

Abstract:

A packet of data and a packet-identification value are transmitted to a network device having an identifier. The stored packet-identification value and the identifier are recorded. The stored packet-identification value is then increased and the process repeats. To receive data, an expected identification value is stored in association with the identifier. A packet and a packet-identification value are received from the network device. The identifier and an indication of receipt are stored. If the received value does not match the expected value for the identifier, the received value is stored. If the values match, the stored packet-identification value and identifier are recorded. If the received value exceeds the expected value, the stored packet-identification value, the identifier and the received identifier are recorded. Subsequently, the stored expected value is increased. The process repeats. Network devices and systems are described.

Abstract:

Trace data are compressed by storing a compression table in a memory. The table corresponds to results of processing a set of training trace data using a table-driven compression algorithm. The trace data are compressed using the table according to the algorithm. The stored compression table is accessed read-only. The table can be determined by automatically processing a set of training trace data using the algorithm and transforming the compression table produced thereby into a lookup-efficient form. A network device includes a network interface, memory, and a processor that stores the table in the memory, compresses the trace data using the stored compression table according to the table-driven compression algorithm, the stored table being accessed read-only during the compressing, and transmits the compressed trace data via the network interface.
