Looking for a tool to simulate unreliable network connections
Hi there, does anyone here know a tool/package that I can use on a Debian system that acts as a router in order to simulate lossy or very slow network connections?

Re: Looking for a tool to simulate unreliable network connections
Hi, Yes, use tc command from iproute package. Or you can make a script to: - Enable/Disable kernel forward in you router. echo 0 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward - Add/Drop static routes. route del default - Reduce TTL in the MANGLE table. - Enable/Disable firewall rules. The last two using iptables. Depending on frequency of this command you can simulate a slow connection. Bye!!!

There's dummynet - no experience with it, or this type of thing in general, but the homepage provides some sort of Debian tarball: http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/dummynet/ http://www.technogumbo.com/tutorials/Network-Bandwidth-Latency-and-Delay-Simulation-Tutorial/Network-Bandwidth-Latency-and-Delay-Simulation-Tutorial.php Celejar -- foffl.sourceforge.net - Feeds OFFLine, an offline RSS/Atom aggregator mailmin.sourceforge.net - remote access via secure (OpenPGP) email ssuds.sourceforge.net - A Simple Sudoku Solver and Generator -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
