Traffic Emulator free download, Traffic Emulator download on software download

Nsasoft Network Traffic Emulator comes in handy to network administrators, enabling them to test the network components in order to make sure that they work properly and don't crash under heavy traffic. Regardless of the network size, it is vital to be able to rely on servers, routers and firewalls. What this application actually does is simulate intense client activity by generating IP, ICMP, TCP and UDP traffic, enabling you to observe the reaction of each item you are testing. The main interface consists of a single window, where all the options are neatly displayed within your reach. The source and the destination parameters refer to the range of IP addresses that you want to send packets to, which you can easily specify. Also, the application enables you to choose the type of packets you want to deliver and their number. ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocol) packets are sent for indicating error messages or relay query requests, such as ping and traceroute commands. On the other hand, TCP and UDP are transport protocols used for data exchange between devices and therefore, are frequently employed by end-user applications. Depending on the testing purposes, you can opt for simulating requests assigned to one or the other protocols. A few more configuration options are required before you can proceed to running the network stress test. You can set the ICMP type and code, the source and the destination ports and the protocol number. Once the configuration procedure is finished, initiating the simulation is just a matter of pressing a button. Nsasoft Network Traffic Emulator can generate traffic in order to help you test the capabilities of your servers, firewalls and routers. Its sole purpose is to help you detect any existing vulnerability that might result in device failures under heavy network load, but it cannot help you fix them.
