IV.3 ANALYSIS
The main objective of this step; it is to understand the
traffic characteristics of the network before applying new applications in the
existing one to ensure successful implementation. This step has also helped to
compare and analyze the result of our Network test lab.
Cisco
SDM tool has helped us to understand IP protocol traffics that are passing on
the network. With this tool we saw QoS Status of bandwidth and bytes which are
used by traffics which were passing through the network.
IV.3.1 Bytes
The figure below displays the bytes utilization statistics
defined by different traffics types.

As shown in the figure above. The traffics bytes per protocol
that are passing in our Network test lab before configuring the IPv6 in the
network there are ICMP packet used to test the connectivity, Telnet packet used
to remote the computer connect to, Routing Internet Protocol (RIP) packet used
to route the packets through the network, DNS packet for resolving the domain
name, they are also other traffics that are not defined [unknown].
IV.3.2 Bandwidth
The figure below illustrates the bandwidth utilization for
protocols under different traffics that are sent on our test lab. The
bandwidths per protocols that are passing are ICMP packet, telnet packet. As
shown in the figure below the bandwidth consummation is very low regarding the
bandwidth available.
Bandwidth utilization is shown in Kilobits Per second (Kbps).
