As a part of CAIDA's mission to promote cooperative
macroscopic measurement and analysis of Internet traffic and
performance, collection of data for scientific analysis of
network function is one of CAIDA's core objectives. CAIDA
collects several different data types at geographically and
topologically diverse locations, and makes this data available to
the research community to the extent possible while preserving
the privacy of individuals and organizations who donate data or
network access. For questions about CAIDA data, contact
data-info@caida.org.
The San Diego Network
Access Point (SDNAP) serves as a peering point for various
Organizations and Internet Service Providers in the San Diego
area. The SDNAP realtime monitor characterizes the traffic at the
exchange. Reports show the most recent two years of data on that
link.
