Looking for a tool to simulate unreliable network connections

2010-02-20 Thread Oliver Schneider
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?


Thanks in advance,

// Oliver

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:
