Internet Measurements

The lecture provides an introduction to concepts and tools for Internet measurements. In addition to basic concepts, we focus on the question how the Internet core and applications and services on top look like in real deployment. Using concrete examples, we illustrate how to measure common and emerging communication solutions (e.g., BGP, IPv6, DNSSEC, QUIC) and which limits exist. The topics presented in this course relate to network security and performance measurements. The lecture will be complemented by a lab in which you will conduct your own measurements and play with big data.
