Abstract
Within the past decade, TCP/IP network environment has been explosively widespread all over the world. As the internet and the WWW expand their boundaries, the network traffic caused by data transfers over the internet has also increased. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of a WebTraMAS (Web-based Traffic Monitoring and Analysis System) which can resolve the shortcomings of current management approaches, particularly on the network traffic monitoring and analysis. The WebTraMAS presented in this paper performs the network management activities based on the parameters related to the MIB-II of SNMP and the parameters related to the QoS such as network performance and fault. The proposed WebTraMAS, implemented using the WWW technology, is able for the network manager to manage the network easily and platform independently with the performance analysis of internet traffic.
