Abstract
A system for providing a network simulation is disclosed. The system may comprise a plurality of simulation platforms, each particular simulation platform of the plurality of simulation platforms representing a simulated entity in the network simulation, each particular simulation platform may include: a simulated node configured for executing a set of networking software for representing the simulated entity; a communication handler configured for handling communications between the particular simulation platform and another simulation platform of the plurality of simulation platforms; and a proxy node configured for emulating a data transmission from an outside node to the simulated node, the outside node being a simulated node of the other simulation platform. The system may further comprise a simulation control module for controlling at least one of: a start and an end of the network simulation, mobility of each of the plurality of simulation platforms, and traffic flows in the network simulation.
