Traffic Modelling Challenges on 10 Gbit/s Links using Netmap Platform

Network devices are using a growing number of 10 Gbit/s links. Such throughput upgrade imposes new challenges on creating high-speed packet generators that can provide real network conditions. Traffic generators implemented as software solutions have challenges in achieving a required performance, a...
