A WWW server benchmark system in IPv6 environment

Abstract

With the spread of IPv6 technology, we can use various IPv6 servers such as WWW and mail. Therefore, a network administrator should measure both IPv6 and IPv4 network and server. We discuss existing measurement tools to use in an IPv6 environment, considering WWW that is the most important service on the Internet. We express a new benchmark system that can handle IPv6 and IPv4 called ANMA. We confirm that ANMA can send requests correctly by both protocol stacks.
