Abstract :
In this paper we present our traffic generation platform, named D-ITG (distributed Internet traffic generator). Its features are first described. We believe that some capabilities are in fact innovative, since no other traffic generator offers them. Then, we describe the original architecture of D-ITG, which allows our traffic generator to achieve high performance. We hint at a comparison with other traffic generators and conclude with the ongoing work to add new features.
