Abstract: New emerging technologies have a larger unpredictability, compared to legacy equipment. Theyrequire a larger set of meaningful tests on many different scenarios.

Towards a Flexible and Extensible Framework for Realistic Traffic Generation on Emerging Networking Scenarios
Abstract: New emerging technologies have a larger unpredictability, compared to legacy equipment. They require a larger set of meaningful tests on many different scenarios. But, in the open source world is hard to find a single tool able to provide realism, speed, easy usage and flexibility at the same time. Most of the tools are monolithic and devoted to specific purposes. This work presents a flexible and extensible framework which aims to decouple synthetic traffic modelling from its traffic generator engine. Through a new abstraction layer, it would become possible to use modern and throughput optimized tools to create realistic traffic, in an automated way. This enables a platform agnostic configuration and reproduction of complex scenarios via analytical models. Also we use pcap files and live-capture to create “Compact Trace Descriptors”.
