P2p Traffic Measurements on the Emule System
نویسندگان
چکیده
P2P systems are designed for the sharing of computer resources by direct exchange and they are characterized by their ability to adapt to failures and accommodate transient populations of peers while maintaining acceptable connectivity and performance. This paper examines the peer-to-peer file sharing infrastructure by focusing on a content delivery system: the eMule application based on the eDonkey protocol. We present a framework developed to collect data and to offer several measurements of the performance of this P2P network. This process will allow us to study the way clients use eMule with the aim of analyzing whether it is possible to create an overlaid network of communities which would enhance the performance of a P2P application.

The eDonkey File-Sharing Network
The eDonkey 2000 file-sharing network is one of the most successful peerto-peer file-sharing applications, especially in Germany. The network itself is a hybrid peer-to-peer network with client applications running on the end-system that are connected to a distributed network of dedicated servers. In this paper we describe the eDonkey protocol and measurement results on network/transport layer ...
متن کاملAdaptive Search Radius for BitTorrent Swarms
Peer-to-Peer systems are responsible for a large fraction of the traffic generated on the Internet, affecting other applications and incurring in high costs for Internet Service Providers. One of those systems, BitTorrent, is widely used worldwide, causing a continuous flow of traffic, translating in the congestion of Internet links. In an effort to restrict the reach (localize) of the traffic ...
متن کاملAnalysing the Security of Incentive Schemes in P2P-based File-sharing Systems
For Peer-to-Peer (P2P) file-sharing services cooperation is essential. However, peers behave rationally and try to maximise their benefits, while minimising their effort. To increase system performance incentive schemes are used to enforce cooperation. Nonetheless, so called free-riders and malicious peers try to attack these incentive schemes. In this paper we will first explain two popular P2...
متن کاملDetecting Parasite P2P Botnet in eMule-like Networks through Quasi-periodicity Recognition
It’s increasingly difficult to detect botnets since the introduction of P2P communication. The flow characteristics and behaviors can be easily hidden if an attacker exploits the common P2P applications’ protocol to build the network and communicate. In this paper, we analyze two potential command and control mechanisms for Parasite P2P Botnet, we then identify the quasi periodical pattern of t...
متن کاملAdaptive Content Poisoning To Prevent Illegal File Distribution in P2P Networks
Digital content owners have attempted to use content poisoning to disrupt illegal distribution of copyrighted files in peer-to-peer (P2P) systems. This paper provides an analytical model to quantify the impact of content poisoning. Tradeoffs between content poisoning and download efficiency are revealed. In particular, we apply this poisoning model to transform and evaluate three popular P2P ne...
