Does anyone know of any FOSS tools that can assist in benchmarking ISC DNS and DHCP services? I would like to simulate X number of users attempting to pull an IP, resolve DNS names, etc. I would also like to test TCP connections into a CentOS server. We have some software that communicates with equipment via a TCP connection and I want to simulate thousands of TCP connections coming into one server. Any suggestions are welcome. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Maybe a tool as ns (Network SImulator) may assist you with this task, but it isn't specific for Centos but a general simulator for any network technology. http://www.isi.edu/nsnam/ns/ On 11/14/06, Ian Anderson <Ian.Anderson at clearwire.com> wrote:> > > > > Does anyone know of any FOSS tools that can assist in benchmarking ISC DNS > and DHCP services?
