perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Gaetano Vocca <>]

Hi,
I didn't investigate yet on paris-traceroute so I can't help you much on
question 1.
About disabling it, you can do it by adding

disable_paris-traceroute

to your /etc/bwctld/bwctld.conf

Hope this helps,
Gaetano

paris-traceroute

Thanks. paris-traceroute looks interesting:
1. How do I use it with bwctl/perfsonar toolkit?
2. If I pick option 3 below, how do I do this? - I can’t find any references
to paris-traceroute in bwctld.conf

Regards,

Roderick
