#1 iTHENA project details
The iThena distributed project concerns experimental mapping of network structures included in the Internet. The project is in closed beta phase. Currently, the only application available in the project (iThena CNode) performs a sequence of traceroute procedures from client computers. The resulting data is sent back to the server and submitted to the main database, where it can be further analyzed.
Currently the main supported and recommended platform is x86_64-pc-linux-gnu. After joining the project, accept the download of test/beta applications in the settings (iThena CNode is a Beta application). This can be changed by checking the appropriate box 'Run test applications?' in 'iThena preferences' in your profile after logging in.
Network structure mapping summaries will be available online.

Not really. Both CNode (linux) and iPerf (windows) are now paying 2 pts. My only current problem is getting iPerf units (which have lower times).

I've been running it on some Pi s. Seemed to run okay, for about 18hrs, then errored. So far pointless.
