Network Traffic Generator Description
Network Traffic Generator serves to test router devices and / or firewalls by placing them under a significant network load. It is fit for assessing the performance of your LAN with very few efforts on your side. Typically, carrying out stress tests on a network goes on with extensive configurations which most of the times require time and advanced tech know-how. The alternative is a program such as Network Traffic Generator that can create test conditions in an easier and friendlier way. The application relies on a client-server technology, which are interdependent. Both components are deployed during the installation process, however, setting them up is a job assigned to the end user. First and foremost, you are advised to tackle the server whose settings can be customized using a minimalistic, yet comprehensive window. After you select the protocol to be used (TCP or UDP) and the port, you can press the ‘Start’ button to initiate it. The client, on the other hand, deals with specific load conditions and allows you to configure the upper limit of the traffic as well as the IP address on which the tests will be carried out and the maximum number of connections. Provided that both the server and the client are configured properly, heavy tests will be initiated, at which point, a general system slowdown is to be expected. The results can be monitored by reading the amount of data read and written inside the interfaces adjacent to the client and the server parts. On the downside, the program hasn’t been updated in quite a while and may become unresponsive on modern operating systems, as proven during our tests. The idea behind is quite outstanding, but the need for updates that can increase its compatibility with the latest technologies is stringent.
