碩士 === 中原大學 === 資訊工程研究所 === 104 === Performing adequate network experiments is important in developing new network mechanisms or network security systems. However, setting up a high-fidelity testing environment is a complicated task and requires a lot of considerations in details. In this thesis, we proposed a set of tools to assist users to automate the process of setting up network testing environments and regenerate the corresponding network activities according to the network traffic records provided by the users. The tool consists of two components: One is the configuration component which analyzes a given network traffic record to obtain relevant network topology information and map the topology to the targeted testing platform. The other is the background traffic generator which regenerates the network activity specified in the same network traffic record. The proposed tool set reduces the burden of the user in designing and carry out network experiments and allow the users to concentrate their effort on the development of new mechanisms.
