Candela makes a Linux based network traffic test tool called LANforge-FIRE. It can generate in excess of 50,000 TCP connections among other features. It is a proprietary tool, but we'll send out free licenses to students and those working on non-commercial open source projects.

Thanks,
Isaac

I still use tcptrace and xplot.org <http://xplot.org> for deep dives.

I just fired off 2048 netperfs to localhost on my laptop.  It started
bogging down at 1000 but made it to the end, all connections chugging away.

Probably a better tool would be the apache benchmark `ab` or something
else that is built to stress out web sites.

    (I'm testing fq_codel and codel)

    I need a test tool that can start many TCP streams (>1024).
    During/after the testrun I want to know if the connections got a fair
    share of the bandwidth.

    Can anyone recomment tools for this?

    After the test I would also like to, "deep-dive" analyse one of the TCP
    streams to see how the congestion window, outstanding-win/data is
    behaving.  Back in 2005 I used-to-use a tool  called
    "tcptrace" (http://www.tcptrace.org).
    Have any better tools surfaced?
