University of Cambridge CL Mbone Seminar Transmissions
There is an initial attempt at a "media on demand" of our test transmissions,
based on the perl scripts from Vinay Kumar (vinay@eit.com)
after the idea by Anders Klemets (klemets@paul.rutgers.edu)
Local users transmitting a session may care to browse
instructions for the use of TP4.
The bits I have collected are a JIPS
contacts list,
a fancy, inline
picture
of JIPS in which nodes can be selected just by clicking on them
(old WWW clients may have problems)
(and a picture of
Cambridge),
the status of
JIPS
(or an old
cache)
[or with
all tunnels
(cache)],
for EU
(c),
NZ
(c),
(all)
AU
(c)
(all)
and the whole mbone (large!).
You can see the routes to the US via
EU and
SURA (and
backup).
ABone members can look at the JIPS ABone page.
See also the official JIPS MBone info.
A WWW interface to mwatch (an MBone monitoring server written as part of
the
MICE
project) is available, i.e.
mrinfo for individual hosts
(or the whole lot! -- this is big),
assymetric routes ,
mcollect to display the TTL to all mrouted's
and
mr to find a route between two multicast hosts.
There is the beginnings of a
README,
some almost up to date
man pages,
V3.6.3 src
and binaries for
SunOS 4.1.3,
SunOS 5.3,
ALPHA OSF/1,
SNAKE,
MIPS Ultrix,
Sun3,
Bobcats (no multicast).
Contact lists are available for
EU
and
NSFnet.
You may care to look athe the
MBone diary at uq.oz.au.
I'm building up a set of maps -- please tell me of any others of which you know.
As well as the
JIPS imagemap,
AU now has its own WWW page.
There are
PS,
GIF and
small GIF
images of the world
(small int or ext
or large int or ext)
EU
(nl)
(no)
(int or ext) and
NA
(int or ext).
The MBONE Information Web should be the place to find all things MBONE.
For JIPS sites, Syngen has declared that the official UK JIPS pilot MBONE now resides on
nosc.ja.net
(including a
contents file
and the JIPS MBone TG in
PS
and
ASCII),
and that the
old directory
is now junk.
For irix 4 systems, see ftp.sgi.com:sgi/ipmcast .
Futher afield, there are the UCL MICE page,
( past MICE seminars),
and available MC software at
UCL
and
ed
as well as the
mbone-faq
(and the stanford
and
EU ones),
unige.ch info
and taurus.cs.nps.navy.mil/pub/mbmg/mbone as
ps,
txt and
HTML.
See the
UAkron DECOSF1 (ALPHA) FTP archives.
small applet that dumps RTP and RTCP packets.
lut.ac.uk has some useful goodies, such as
sad which allows you to announce sessions, and
mdump which dumps multicast packets.
multicast transport protocols.
To access MBone sessions from WWW without using sd, you need to get a copy of
sd-launch, and include in your .mailcap a line such as:
"application/x-sd; sd-launch %s"
and then you can use the links as seen from
cl.cam.ac.uk
or
nrl.navy.mil

Bill Fenner .
