A significant portion of what is known about Internet routing stems out from\ public BGP datasets. For this reason, numerous research efforts were devoted to\ (i) assessing the (in)completeness of the datasets, (ii) identifying biases\ in the dataset, and (iii) augmenting data quality by optimally placing new\ collectors. However, those studies focused on techniques to extract information\ about the AS-level Internet topology.

In this paper, we show that considering different metrics influences the\ conclusions about biases and collector placement. Namely, we compare AS-level\ topology discovery with \iac inference. We find that the same datasets exhibit\ significantly diverse biases for these two metrics. For example, the sensitivity\ to the number and position of collectors is noticeably different. Moreover, for\ both metrics, the marginal utility of adding a new collector is strongly\ localized with respect to the proximity of the collector. Our results suggest\ that the {\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}optimal{\textquoteright}{\textquoteright} position for new collectors can only be defined with\ respect to a specific metric, hence posing a fundamental trade-off for\ maximizing the utility of extensions to the BGP data collection infrastructure.

This work experimentally demonstrates how to control and manage user Quality of Service (QoS) by acting on the switching on-off of the optical Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) interfaces in a wide area network test bed including routers and GPON accesses. The QoS is monitored at the user location by means of active probes developed in the framework of the FP7 MPLANE project. The network topology is managed according to some current Software Defined Network issues and in particular an Orchestrator checks the user quality, the traffic load in the GbE links and manages the network interface reconfiguration when congestion occurs in some network segments.
