Settings:. Our crawler works in the following manner: a machine (either a Linux machine in
our CSIL cluster at UIUC, or a PlanetLab node) joins a given PPLive channel, and then
crawls peers attending that channel. The crawler is used to execute what we call the
Snapshot Operation. For the PlanetLab setting, we crawl using 10 geographically-distributed
hosts, and aggregate their crawled information. Ethereal is used to trace traffic between
PPLive nodes and servers.
