Hi all,<br>I agree with Ruud :-)<br><br>I changed the subject because another question came to my mind (and I dont want to interfere with Jay's topic).<br>How do you guys know when the ping is "stable" ?<br><br>
At connection the ping starts with a default value and then converge to the right value.<br>Do you know some tricks to obtain the more accurate ping possible in a given time ?<br><br>I'd like one peer to be able to map all ping values in a mesh network and use those values as soon as possible.<br>
So maybe I could set up a mechanism where everyone is sending its ping values with other peers when he knows those values are stable.<br>Did anyone already implement something like this ?<br><br>Thanks by advance for your help,<br>
best regards,<br>Julien<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jan 11, 2010 at 10:37 AM, Ruud van Gaal <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ruud@racer.nl" target="_blank">ruud@racer.nl</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

icmp/tracert/discovering network topology?<br></font><br></div><div><div></div><div>
<div></div>Good morning,<br><br>I'm considering adding some extra features to
my enet based peer to peer application. I'd like the main server to be smart
enough to discover which peers have the shortest connection path to each
other. When a peer requests a list of other peers to connect to then the
server can deliver an optimal list. The only way I could think of to implement
this would be to do a tracert to each peer and sort the list of peers by what
common paths they share. Has anyone done icmp packets with enet? I know it's
not it's intended function but it doesn't seem like it would be difficult to
hack together. If anyone has any better ideas on how to implement this I'd
love to hear them.<br><br>Thanks!<br>Have a good
weekend<br><br><br></div></div></blockquote></div>
