Traffic will be set up simultaneously among the KU, TIOC and NRL sites, in the configuration shown in Figure 2. As described in [1,2], the NETSPEC application [3] will be used for testing this configuration. The effects of cell pacing and large TCP window sizes will be evaluated. Techniques to improve the throughput will be identified and recommended for use at other AAI sites.
