FASTWEB will lead WP6 where most of his effort will be spent and where data collection will be organized by installing mPlane probes in their testplan and in their operative network. As an industrial partner we will host network probes developed within mPlane in our network to provide actual measurement data for the project. FASTWEB will contribute to WP2, with particular attention to the definition of probe requirements, both in terms of functionalities, and in terms of technical constraints to be met when undergoing deployment in an actual ISP network. In addition, FASTWEB will contribute also to the active network measurements thanks to its experience in that field. FASTWEB will contribute to WP5 too, to provide the support for the installation, integration and deployment of the mPlane nodes within their testbed and operational network.
