Determine whether the packet arrival rate follows a Poisson distribution.
Determine whether the packet arrival rate follows a Poisson distribution.
We received a packet log covering roughly 100 seconds of network activity. It contains information such as timing, source and destination ports, IP addresses, frame size, packet type, protocol ID, and multiple headers. From this data, we need to determine whether the packet arrival pattern follows a Poisson distribution.
This feels like another assignment, just like the others. The folks here won’t do your work for you. Check Wikipedia to learn about the Poisson distribution, then attempt to determine whether the timing of your packet arrivals follows that pattern.
