...I have the groundwork to make it dynamic so that pcap isn't required to run it, so you can run dynamips without installing anything.
I hope to add some different underlying networking connections.
The VPCS can simulate up to 9 PCs. You can ping/traceroute them, or ping/traceroute the other hosts/routers from the virtual PCs when you study the Cisco routers in the Dynamips. VPCS is not the traditional PC, it is just a program running on the Linux or Windows, and only few network commands can be used in it. But VPCS can give you a big hand when you study the Cisco devices in the Dynamips. VPCS can replace the routers or VMware boxes which are used as PCs in the Dynamips network.
Distributed Network emulation tool for high rate packet
...So if you are interested and have C/C++ programming skills, please contact me at zahid.med@gmail.com
This framework allows to emulate a network by managing ethernet packets coming from two kind of interfaces: UDP and virtual network card.
This tool is similare to dynamips (GNS3) but it can manager a higher packet rate.
It can help to study DDoS attacks based on Botnet using the Lightweigth C++ Virtual Machine (LwCVM) in order to emulate Bots.
This project is based on the following projects and libraries:
LightweighIP of the TCP/IP stack
pthread
libpcap for communication with virtual machines
dynamips
Linux MicroCore
