Do we have an ETA when WANem will be updated to resolve known vulnerabilities? This tool is great, but we can no longer use it by our Security Team. fyi: I only use the ISO version of the product.

After Configuring WANem(v2.3) between Server PC and client device, to test TCP stack of client, WANem GUI has rather variable load time, it loads quite slowly and only workaround i found out was to restart WANem host machine each time. Is there any solution or as to why this happens.
Hi, I am working with jumbo frames, with mtu up to 9000. When trying to manually configure through terminal the mtu of my interfaces (with ifconfig for example) I am getting an error if my mtu size is over 1500: ipconfig my_interface mtu 9000 up I know that my nic supports jumbo frames with those mtus. Does the WANem machine itself able to work with jumbo frames? If so, how can I configure it to do so?
Hi, When I boot the software from the iso image, from the Knoppix screen, the further setup screen does not show up. Only the black screen stays. Does anyone face the same issue and could help with any suggestions to proceed further. Thanks and Regards
Hi, I am trying to use the software with windows. With the downloaded files from https://sourceforge.net/projects/wanem/files/ I do not find the iso image in the folder. Tried creating the iso image from the disc image file, but could not generate one. Could you please share the iso file of the software, or suggest the required changes need to obtain the same. Thank you. Best Regards.
Hi guys. I am new to WANem solution, I tried to create the scenarios on the user guide documents, but I am having hard time passing traffic via WANem. I have enabled NAT with 'nat add eth0' command, and I configured iptable on WANem with ' iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport $DBPORT -j DNAT --destination $DBIP:$DBPORT' with of the host 1 ip and TCP port, However I am still not able to see the delays I have set when I ping the host 2. But I can see the delay of 100ms when I ping the WANem...
Hello, I've installed WANEM 2.3 successfully, I have setup an IP address on eth0, I can ping this IP from the network, but when I open Http://wanemip, all I get is WAN em v2.3: It works ! Is there another URL to access the GUI configuration pages? Thank you. Chris
Guys, I tried to run WANem (version 3.0 Beta 2) on a ESXi resource pool - especially since you can install to HD. Got it up with 4 NICs configured (1 mgmt and 3 traffic VLANs) and connected. tested using one NIC with 2 external hosts in the same VLAN/subnet. Traffic from host 1 arrived at WANem (via host route), but does not leave the WANem indirection of host 2 any more.... Tried different NIC (e.g. E1000) but all did not work. Exactly the same setup with WANem 2.3 works fine.... Any ideas what...
When will a new version be created on the latest Linux version with security patches? Thank you, Andrew
Hello Sushma Alse, Can you explain what was the procedure to get the WANem to ec2 ?
Hello Team, please help me to install the Wanem on my mac or ec2 instance in AWS or let me know the process of installation
Hi Team, Wanted to create a WANem instance on AWS using VMImport of the WANem's VM OVA. However, I see an error during the VMImport: ClientError: No valid partitions. Not a valid volume. Could you please suggest a workaround to get the WANem instance up and working on AWS. Thanks! Regards, Sushma
Hello, 1.When i use WANem(intalled in VM in pc1) to limit bandwidth between two physical machines pc2 and pc3, all 3 physical machines connect to one switch, the connection between pc2 and pc3 are restricted and i did not see WANem works just follow the instruciton. 2.

Hi, In page 6 diagram "Sydney" has spelled as "Sidney"! Which doesn't look good. Can someone update the documentation. Thanks
Had the same issue - change the network adapter type from VMXNET3 to E1000. WANEM doesn't have drivers for VMXNET3 it would seem. I also created the VM from the ISO directly from rather than using the VM (which seems to be ESXI3.0)

Hi Armel, what are the ethernet adapter type in the ESXi VM ? It looks like WANem knoppix kernel does not support vmxnet3 interface, try using E1000 instead. Not ideal, and i've staretd another thread topic on the lack of para-virtualization in WAMem....

What is the rationale behind disabling remote access to the WANem system? We used SSH to configure and run scripts to simulate WAN issues, and this can't really be done under 3.0 due to the lack of shell support. The so-called "Remote Terminal" is a farce in that you can't really edit files. Common keys such as Ctl-U and Backspace don't work. Up arrow for commad recall doesn't work. I don't know how this can be considered a replacement for SSH access.
Hi, I created a VM that boot from the ISO file Wanem2.3. During the boot, it says it can't detect any NIC and ask to install the driver from USB. I have created two network adaptors for this VMs, each connecting to a separate physical NIC from the ESXi server. I have tested the same VM on my Fusion Pro 10 on my macbook and it works perfectly with also two network adaptors. Any idea what I should check? Thanks
I have 2 esxi boxes each running several vms, one of the vms is running wanem. I can use the ip route add command to force the network traffic via the wanem (vm). Does anyone know of a way to configure esxi to force all the network traffic to the wanem (vm) so I don't need to configure each vm. BTW all the vms are running on the same vlan, not sure if that makes a differeance.
Wheather any one created a VP on WANEM tool, please share this with me...!!!
I have used WANEM for testing the application in different bandwidth by introducing all the network caracteristics, it is a agreat tool, worked perfectly... i need to implement this in my project, can i get the validation plan for the WANEMv2.3. it is little urgent please send to my email address maruti.lm@gmail.com if any one has it.
Hi all, I recently installed WANEM on my PC (Win10) using Workstation Player. My PC has two different Ethernet interface, so I wonder what's the best setup to use WANEM. Currently I configured a bridge between each physical interface and the corresponding virtual interface. Physical (and corresponding virtual) interface connected to my Internet router get an IP via DHCP but I have to setup a static IP on the other physical and virtual interface. This is causing some troubles ... Here is the expected...

Hi, For sure it is possible. You need to route all your traffic to another interfejs, You can do this with iptables,see this: https://www.debuntu.org/how-to-redirecting-network-traffic-to-a-new-ip-using-iptables/ Or this https://askubuntu.com/questions/907972/route-all-traffic-of-a-machine-through-another-within-a-subnet Your case is think at the end of second link SYouYouromething like: Br, Naipetrof

Hi. i have 2 networks 172.16.0.0/24 172.16.1.0/24 and a PC with 2 ethernet cards that runs wanem. i would like to make WANEM route both networks in between. So a PC that is in LAN 172.16.0.0/24 subnet to be able to see a PC in 172.16.1.0/24 subnet. Then WANEM will do its magic and apply its own latency/drop/delays etc I did enable sysctl.conf to /etc/sysctl.conf: net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 but i am missing the reset of the config. Is there a way to do that, please?
Hi. New to wanem and i installed version 3.0 to HD. Once the system (re)boots it gets to the shell, not to X environment. Once i type exit2shell it exits to ordinary bash and then i have to type startx to go to desktop. Is there a way to make it automatically, please?
Good Morning All, I've been playing around with WANem 3.0 for a few weeks now and find it intuitive and the documentation commendable.

It is shown dimensionless and appears to follow the latency measurement which doesn't make sense to me. When expressing the jitter value in WANem, it is entered as +/- msec from the configured latency, however this...

I am using an HD installed version of WANem 3.0B2 and have everything working except I can't seem to persist my subinterfaces (VLANs) across boots.

I installed WANem in VM VirtualBox. VM's network is bridge mode.WANem got the IP address by DHCP.and WANem's IP address is in the same subnet with Host. It could ping Host's IP address but cannot ping others. Also cannot access internet. I checked the gateway and DNS. they are all OK. What do I do wrong? could you give some suggestion? The host is window 7 OS 64bit. When I installed window OS in VM with bridge mode. It can access internet.
