University of Auckland Computer Science Department, New Zealand. 1173-35001173-3500http://hdl.handle.net/2292/10404Widely used protocols (UDP and TCP) are observed for variations of the UDP to TCP ratio and of port number distribution, both over time and between different networks. The purpose of the study was to understand the impact of application trends, especially the growth in media streaming, on traffic characteristics. The results showed substantial variability but little sign of a systematic trend over time, and only wide spreads of port number usage.Items in ResearchSpace are protected by copyright, with all rights reserved, unless otherwise indicated.
