[Opensim-dev] New Network Metrics Patch Submitted

[Sean M]

Greetings,

The MOSES Team has submitted a new patch that provides all of the network
metrics from the previously submitted Mantis ticket #0007632.  The new
patch extends configuration and security options with the metrics.

New Patch: http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=7653
Original Patch: http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=7632

1) All of the introduced metrics have configuration variables relocated
from OpenSim.ini.example to config-include/AdvancedSimulationMetrics.ini

2) OpenSim.ini.example contains a new variable (AdvancedSimulationMetrics)
that points to the AdvancedSimulationMetrics.ini. If the variable is not
explicitly given a path in OpenSim.ini, the network statistics will not be
calculated.

3) Inside config-include/AdvancedSimulationMetrics.ini is the
AdvancedMetricsEnable. This variable is the master on/off switch for all of
the introduced variables. By default, this value is FALSE and does not
calculate the new variables.

4) AdvancedSimulationMetrics.ini includes individual on/off switches for
the other network metrics. If AdvancedMetricsEnable is false, none of the
network metrics will be collected. If AdvancedMetricsEnable is true,
individual metrics will be calculated only if their corresponding variable
is explicitly set to TRUE. By default, each metrics' on/off switch is
turned off.

5) The IP-to-Avatar reporting has been updated to follow the
RemoteAdminPlugin example. Now, a password is required to access the IP
data. The password is a variable in AdvancedSimulationMetrics.ini.

Thank you,
Sean Mondesire, Ph.D.
