NEWS & UPDATES 》 First TOFFEE-Mocha Code Release

TOFFEE-Mocha is my dream project which I thought working on it since several years. I want to make a WAN emulation software which is straight forward and simple to use. I used "tc" scripts along with iptables for testing my TOFFEE (and TrafficSqueezer before TOFFEE) and I am not quite satisfied with the same. As one can understand these scripts are not meant for WAN emulation.

Hence I wanted a dedicated WAN emulator software which does simulation of a real WAN like network such as packet delays, packet drops and few other features. Eventually I started the project titled TOFFEE-Mocha on 1-Jun-2016. I thought it may take a month to build the first phase of the same and eventually make it ready for release. But quite fortunately I completed the same way before my expected schedule. And hence I am releasing the first TOFFEE-Mocha today !

Here are my TOFFEE-Mocha software development updates which I posted earlier:

I suggested in my posts (news updates and videos) that I may release the TOFFEE-Mocha on 1-July-2016 on Raspberry Pi. But since I completed the phase-1 software development and system-level testing, etc, eventually I decided to release prior to the scheduled release date. There are few issues/delays in preparing Raspberry Pi TOFFEE-Mocha version, so I did first x86_64 TOFFEE_Mocha release (23-Jun-2016) and later followed by Raspberry Pi TOFFEE-Mocha (24-Jun-2016).

Here is my VLOG Youtube video of the same which includes details about version release notes, future road-map and so on.

Here is my first software development update of TOFFEE-Butterscotch. In my first TOFFEE-Butterscotch news update I have introduced about TOFFEE-Butterscotch research, project specifications, use-cases, etc. Introducing TOFFEE-Butterscotch Alerts: These are simple packet counters which corresponds to the filter type. For example if the incoming TCP-SYN packets are blocked then its corresponding alert counter will increment whenever such a packet arrives and gets filtered (dropped).

TOFFEE-Mocha WAN Emulation software development - Update: 19-July-2016 ↗
Saturday' 13-Mar-2021
Today I refined the first page consolidated report graphs. TOFFEE-Mocha (unlike TOFFEE) is a WAN Emulator, so the graphs are supposed to highlight this purpose and should display the overall network activity. Unlike TOFFEE, the TOFFEE-Mocha report should contain in general what is received versus what is sent across the wire. In case if the packet drop feature is enabled, you should see few missing bytes and packets. Similarly in future I may support packet duplication feature, in that case you may see more packets/bytes sent versus the packets/bytes actually received.

TOFFEE (and TOFFEE-DataCenter) optimized Mobile Wireless Backhaul Networks ↗
Saturday' 13-Mar-2021
TOFFEE can be used to optimize expensive Wireless backhaul network infrastructure. TOFFEE can be deployed over existing slow or often outdated old backhaul networks too. This will leverage mobile ISPs and network service providers to reduce their bulk IT CapEx and OpEx Costs.

You can build a basic TOFFEE WAN Optimization hardware completely in software layer (i.e its networking data-plane and control-plane). And if you are a product manufacturer you can make commercial WAN Optimization products with TOFFEE with software layer alone. And if you choose to improve its performance, you can use any third-party PCIe Compression Accelerator cards.
