  • Abstract

    In-band Network Telemetry (INT) provides visibility into the state of the network and can be used for monitoring and debugging. However, existing implementations do not make telemetry available to end-hosts. In this demonstration we present TCP-INT, which delivers network telemetry directly to the hosts and show the advantages of correlating end-host state with the state of the network fabric.
