The Multi-Generator (MGEN) is open source software by the Naval Research
|
||
|
|
Laboratory (NRL) PROTocol Engineering Advanced Networking (PROTEAN)
|
||
|
|
Research Group. MGEN provides the ability to perform IP network
|
||
|
|
performance tests and measurements using UDP/IP traffic (TCP is currently
|
||
|
|
being developed).
|
||
|
|
The toolset generates real-time traffic patterns so that the network can
|
||
|
|
be loaded in a variety of ways. The generated traffic can also be
|
||
|
|
received and logged for analyses. Script files are used to drive the
|
||
|
|
generated loading patterns over the course of time. These script files can
|
||
|
|
be used to emulate the traffic patterns of unicast and/or multicast UDP/IP
|
||
|
|
applications. The receive portion of this tool set can be scripted to
|
||
|
|
dynamically join and leave IP multicast groups. MGEN log data can be used
|
||
|
|
to calculate performance statistics on throughput, packet loss rates,
|
||
|
|
communication delay, and more.
