Abstract

LOBSTER is a pilot European Infrastructure for accurate Internet traffic monitoring. Based on passive monitoring, and capitalizing on our experience, the LOBSTER infrastructure will be unique in Europe and among the only two similar infrastructures that exist in the world today. Thus, LOBSTER will make a significant contribution to "IST 2.3.5 Research Networking test-beds" whose objective is "to integrate and validate ... state-of-the-art technology that is essential for preparing the future upgrades in the infrastructure deployed across Europe". In addition, LOBSTER will contribute to the overall IST Workprogramme, whose objective is to ensure European leadership in the generic and applied technologies", by enhancing the European leadership in network monitoring technologies.

Abstract (NL)

Het Europese Lobster project ontwikkelt een Europese infrastructuur van netwerkmonitoren voor de backbone-verbindingen, waarmee beveiligingsprogramma's het netwerk in de gaten kunnen houden (en alarm kunnen slaan als ze een uitbraak van wormen of virussen vinden).
