Stager A Web Based Application for Presenting Network Statistics
Arne Øslebø · 2006
Stager is a Web based application for presenting most types of network statistics. It was originally designed as an application for presenting NetFlow reports, but as the development progressed, it evolved into a more generic application that can be used for presenting most types of network statistics. The current version has support for NetFlow, SNMP and roundtrip delay measurements. This paper first gives a general overview of what Stager is. Several screen shots are provided to demonstrate how the application can be used. It then describes in some detail the design of Stager, both the backend and the frontend. Performance is an important issue in an application like Stager. A description of potential bottlenecks and performance limitations is given as well as some real world performance numbers. The paper concludes with an overview of future plans for Stager and some details about what is required to install it
