A TCP/IP Network Emulator
Overview In this paper, a Linux based framework of TCP/IP network emulator is introduced. Several advantages can be noted. Firstly, the maintenance of large numbers of processors is unnecessary. Secondly, compared with simulators constructed with conceptual codes, the emulator framework makes it easier to test the interaction and behaviour of TCP/IP in real Linux network environments. Thirdly, the wired network topology is fully controlled by a single processor, enabling to separate TCP/IP behaviour over the wireless network, which helps distinguish performance functions that occur due to noisy wireless links. The framework was tested on two Linux processors over an IEEE 802.11b wireless network.
