Example Use Cases

• Analyzing network traffic in diverse network conditions (pdf)
  • We've collected 50+ hours of streaming and browsing network traffic under a VPN to test an encrypted traffic classification model under multiple network conditions
• Testing web application performance in different network conditions using Selenium screen captures
  • DANE can set up containers with your desired network conditions
  • A custom script can load the application and take screenshots to help understand performance
• Un-encrypted network traffic research using packet captures
  • You can configure to use a VPN – or not!
  • You can use a different network monitoring tool, like TShark to collect full packet captures by modifying the client's Dockerfile and collection.py script
• Collect data that resembles real-world client data
  • By modifying the client Dockerfile, you can have the container run background services that add realistic noise to your network data
• Use a browser window attached to emulated network conditions, see the user experience first hand
  • If you really want to hack the tool, you can connect a VNC to the client containers to run their browser windows as a GUI application!
