Abstract
Computer network traffic generators provide a means for supplying benchmark results and for measuring computer network performance at all levels. Eventually they will also aid in fault diagnosis. The network traffic generator described in this thesis allows flexible yet convenient control over a number of parameters useful for generating loads over both test and real networks based on DEC's PDP-11 minicomputer. Implementation on a test network provides sample results. A discussion of design compromises, an recommendations for further study and design point to various open issues.
