Usage

AnaVANET-processor

  1. Downloads packet-processor.zip and unzip it.
  2. Install Netbeans and open packet-processor
  3. Build the AnaVANET netbeans project (Shortcut key is F11).
  4. The built program is found in packet-processor/dist/AnaVANET.jar
  5. The help message can be shown by the following commend.
    6. $ java -jar packet-processor/dist/AnaVANET.jar -help
                
Usage:    [-help] [  ...] (-UDP | -TCP | -PING)  -C2CNET -GN6 -NEMOSIG
  6. Downloads 2011-handover-data-sample.zip and unzip it.
  7. Go 2011-handover-data-sample/ and type the following command
    8. $ sh memo.txt
  8. The following figure is the simple usage of AnaVANET-processor. AnaVANET-basic-command
  9. NEMOSigtraces.log, UDPtraces.log, UDPtraces_position.xml and distances.log are generated. processor new files
    10. NEMOSigtraces.log
    Trace file of NEMO signaling (Binding Upate (BU), Binding Acknowlegement(BA)). The first two lines of the following example shows that the binding update is successfully registered in the HA (Time 19:51:37.978 and 19:51:48.979). In contrast, the binding updates sent from MR3 to RSU2 is dropped in the last two lines of the example (Time 19:51:59.979 and 19:52:0.982). The number of hops the packet relayed is recorded after the time. 
      19:51:37.978 3 MR3(RSU2) RSU2(MR3x) MR3x(MR3)
  19:51:48.979 3 MR3(RSU2) RSU2(MR3x) MR3x(MR3)
  19:51:59.979 1 MR3(RSU2)
  19:52:0.982 1 MR3(RSU2)
    UDPtraces.log
    The Trace file if UDP packets. The first two lines of the following example shows that the packets sent from MR3 is received in RSU2. The two rest lines shows that the packets sent from MR3 is received in RSU1. In other words, handover is triggered between time of 19:53:16 and 19:53:24. 
      19:53:16.941 2 MR3(RSU2) RSU2(RSU2)
  19:53:16.945 2 MR3(RSU2) RSU2(RSU2)
  19:53:24.23 2 MR3(RSU1) RSU1(RSU1)
  19:53:24.23 2 MR3(RSU1) RSU1(RSU1)
    UDPtraces_position.xml
    This file is the one second statistics used in the Google Maps viewer. 
    <marker date="3/2/2011" time="18:51:34" dateL="3/2/2011" timeL="19:51:13" lat_MR3="48.83783435821533" lng_MR3="2.099832110106945" speed_MR3="0.09260000000000002" lat_RSU1="48.83770191669464" lng_RSU1="2.101257346570492" speed_RSU1="0.0" lat_RSU2="48.83815002441406" lng_RSU2="2.0986740216612816" speed_RSU2="0.0" distance_MR3_RSU1="105.47162577420258" distance_RSU1_RSU2="195.7590989206364" PDRlink_MR3_RSU2="0" PDRlink_RSU2_RSU2="0" PDRlink_MR3_RSU1="0" PDRlink_RSU1_RSU1="0" PDR="0" bytes="0" bandwidth="0.0" jitter="0" rtt="0" NEMO_status="0" />
    distances.log
    A temporary file. Do not care.

AnaVANET-processor parameters to process your own data

  1. Open packet-processor/src/anavanet/packettrace/PacketTracer.java and check the time zone of hardware time. If it uses UTC, keep DIFF_UTC_TIME = 0, otherwise specify the gap between used time zone. 
        // Difference between Madrid/Paris time and UTC time, in hours // Summer time =-1, Winter =-2 
    private static final int DIFF_UTC_TIME = 0;
  2. When you process UDP packets, open packet-processor/src/anavanet/packettrace/PacketTracer.java and check the total packet size of the UDP packets. AnaVANET ignores the packets except for the packets with the specified size. 
        // When iperf with 1300 Bites, it will be 1442 by adding 142 bits of C2C NET header
    // GN6 == 1444 (old) // new == 1432
    private static final int IPERF_PACKET_SIZE = 1432;

AnaVANET-viewer

  1. Downloads web-viewer-v0.2.zip and unzip it.
  2. Change the permission of index.cgi as executable. 
    3. $ chmod +x index.cgi
  3. Change the permission of data directory as readable and writable.
    4. $ chmod 777 data/ data/json data/upload
  4. Edit the first line of index.cgi with the correct path of perl. You can check the path of perl in your environment by the following command. 
      $ which perl
  /opt/local/bin/perl
    In this case, please edit the first line of index.cgi as follow. 
      #!/opt/local/bin/perl
  5. Execute index.cgi with command line. This command returns error anyway.
    6.  $ perl index.cgi
  Can't locate FindBin/Real.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.14.2 /usr/local/share/perl/5.14.2 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.14 /usr/share/perl/5.14 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at index.cgi line 4.
  BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at index.cgi line 4.
  6. If the error says lack of the perl modules, Install the necessary modules like the following commands. If the type of errors are not like above, but like bellow, you already have all necessary perl modules. Please skip installing perl modules. 
    7.  $ sudo cpan
  cpan[1]> install FindBin::Real
  cpan[2]> install Try::Tiny
  cpan[3]> install JSON::XS
  cpan[4]> install Text::Xslate
  7. Continue above installation untill the error message gives following error.
    8.   $ perl index.cgi
  [Sun Nov 11 16:33:03 2012] index.cgi: Use of uninitialized value $req_method in hash element at index.cgi line 32.

  8. Access web-viewer-v0.2/ directory with your browser (example: http://localhost/~username/AnaVANET/web-viewer-v0.2/). If your localhost runs apache2 webserver, you will see the screen like this. Drag and drop the UDPtraces_position.xml file that you have generated with the packet-processor program as in the following figure. For MAC users, see Install and configure Apache, MySQL, PHP on OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion.

Experiments

About Scripts in experiment

If you read until this place, you already download the scripts used in the past experiment, because 2011-handover-data-sample.zip is the complete backup of the experiment took place in 2011. All the scripts and the configuration files are thus in it. 

  2011-handover-data-sample/
  ├── OBU4/
  │   ├── startOBU.sh
  │   ├── itsnet.conf
  │   ├── radvd.conf
  │   └── mip6d.conf
  ├── RSU/
  │   ├── startRSU.sh
  │   ├── radvd.conf
  │   └── imara-bt7.txt
  ├── RSU2/

  │   └── imara-bt20.txt
  ├── Receiver/
  │   └── outdoor-recv.sh
  └── Sender/
      └── outdoor-sender.sh

Usage of the scripts

Edit the script and configuration and then, launch the scripts (startOBU.sh and startRSU.sh) in both OBU and RSU like follows 

  OBU4 # ./startOBU.sh
  RSU1 # ./startRSU.sh
  RSU2 # ./startRSU.sh

Now the routing setup and AnaVANET setup is ready. Generate the UDP or ICMPv6 traffic by following commands.

In the case of UDP, the commands of receiver side is: 

  UDP_Receiver # ./outdoor-recv.sh  --UDP
  or
  UDP_Receiver # iperf -s --format b -i .5 -V >> log.txt
The commands of sender side is: 
  UDP_Sender # ./outdoor-sender.sh --UDP
  or
  UDP_Sender # iperf --client $DST --udp --format b -i .5 -V --time 900 --bandwidth 1000000 --len 1250 >>  log.txt

In the case of ICMPv6, only sender side needs a command as follows: 

  ICMPv6_Sender # ./outdoor-sender.sh --UDP
  or
  ICMPv6_Sender # ping6 -i 0.5  $DST >> log.txt

About data

The TCPDUMP log taken in the experiments are converted to text file with the following commends. 

$ tcpdump -r (dump_file) -xx -nn -s1500 > tcpdump.txt

The GPS log taken in the experiments are renamed. For example, 

$ cp gps_MR_20110203-19-50-768999717.log gps.txt

  2. Go sync_geo_rssi/ and type the following command in order to generate a json format file from the GPS log and the TCPDUMP log. See "readme.txt" in sync_geo_rssi/ more detail about the usage of sync_gps_rssi.pl 
    3.   $ ./sync_gps_rssi.pl > ../web-viewer-v0.2/data/rssi/20120918150814_sync_rssi_gps.json
  3. (Install perl module of JSON::XS and Class::Accessor::Lite, if necessary in the previous step.)
  4. Access RSSI Heat map page with specifying your json file name (example: http://localhost/~username/AnaVANET/web-viewer-v0.2/?rssi=20120918150814). You will see the following page. Congratulations!!
