Abstract: Many projects have sought to measure the dynamics of the Internet by using end-to-end measurement tools. The RADAR tool has been designed in this context. It consists in periodically tracing the routes from a monitor toward a set of destinations, IP addresses chosen randomly in the Internet. However, the localization of these destinations on the topology has a significant influence on the observed dynamics. We study the dynamics observed when the destinations are localized at a country scale. We show that this localization may lead to observe a different dynamics. The local dynamics observed in our case is mainly a routing dynamics whereas the load balancing dominates the entire Internet dynamics.
