Abstract
The broadcast industry is increasingly using Internet Protocol (IP) networks for content delivery and distribution. The EBU IP Measurement (EBU ECN-IPM) group has investigated issues involved in monitoring the status of media strems, and identified the need for a standards-based approach of this on a multi-vendor network. The group has proposed a new standard for measuring a number of common media-specific network parameters. An open source software platform called EisStream was also developed, with capacity to benefit from this standard. The software functions include device and topology discovery and physical path tracing for both end-to-end communication and multicast streams. Once the new MIB standard becomes adopted by manufacturers, the EisStream platform will be able to achieve the ultimate goal of multilayer monitoring for streams on a multi-vendor network with fully media-specific parameters.
