I've been working on a simulator that I think might be useful for NTP developers and advanced users looking for optimal configurations.
http://fedorapeople.org/~mlichvar/clknetsim/ clknetsim is a clock and network simulator designed for testing unmodified NTP servers and clients. The NTP applications have all necessary system functions related to networking and clocks replaced by LD_PRELOAD mechanism and are clients of clknetsim server which provides access to the virtual network and clocks. Unicast and broadcast modes are supported. Network delays and clock frequencies are configured with Lisp-style expressions, there are several random number generators and waveforms available. It's also possible to use a file with pregenerated or measured values as a source. >From NTP applications, currently supported are Linux ntpd and chronyd. -- Miroslav Lichvar _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
