Hi everyone, I will get flows using the "range" command. So I am reviewing
documents and sample codes about this topic. I would like to ask a few
things that I cannot understand. What is the flow generation procedure of
range command? Take port 0 as an example. 128 different ip addresses and
2000 different port numbers are used for source and destination. As far as
I understand, these lines are repeated for each package.But how is the flow
creation procedure?
My opinions:
First: Is it a random port number and ip address for each pass over the
file? So total 128 * 2000= 256000 flows were created here.
Second: when we think of increment operator, generated packets:
1. packet: dst_ip: 192.168.1.1 , src_ip: 192.168.0.1 , dst_port: 2000 ,
src_port: 5000
2. packet dst_ip: 192.168.1.2 , src_ip: 192.168.0.2 , dst_port: 2001 ,
src_port: 5001
................................
128. packet: dst_ip: 192.168.1.128 , src_ip: 192.168.0.128 , dst_port:
2128 , src_port: 5128
129.packet dst_ip: 192.168.1.1 , src_ip: 192.168.0.1 , dst_port:
2129, src_port: 5129 or (???) dst_ip: 192.168.1.128 , src_ip:
192.168.0.128 , dst_port: 2129, src_port: 5129
then it will end when source and destination port numbers reach their
highest value..
........
Can you help with this issue? I want to measure the performance of the
system that I have created in different flow numbers with the pktgen tool.
For this reason, the number of flows is important for me. Thanks for your
help.
