Abstract :
We propose a distributed monitoring scheme for an ad-hoc/mesh network topology, and design a distributed hash table based peer-to-peer system to log the topology information. A manager can rebuild a model of the network topology at any time in the past of its history by querying any node in the network. Merging and splitting of the monitoring overlays over time are supported by our protocol.
