This notebook demonstrates how to deploy and use perfSONAR within the FABRIC testbed to monitor network performance between distributed nodes. It walks through the setup of a shore-side environment (perfSONAR toolkit + result archiver) and a ship-side testpoint (Docker-based), with the ship-side simulated using a VM on FABRIC.

While the example emulates a ship-to-shore setup for mobile edge scenarios, the workflow is general-purpose and can be adapted for any FABRIC experiment that requires periodic or continuous measurement of throughput, latency, RTT, and other network metrics.

The experiment also includes automated result archiving and visualization.
