Related tools, projects or initiatives

  • VNEC. VNEC allows the specification and execution of networking experiments in a virtual environment using a VMWare virtual environment. An experiment is a network configuration (i.e., network topology and computer configuration) together with a set of tasks to be executed and their execution order.
  • NetML (and Netkit). NetML is an XML based, open source markup language to describe computer networks.
  • MNL. MLN (Manage Large Networks) is a virtual machine administration tool designed to build and run virtual machine networks based on Xen and User-Mode Linux.
  • VNE. Virtual Network Experiments with User Mode Linux.
  • NDL. The Network Description Language provides a way to describe computer networks in a meaningful way using the Resource Description Framework (RDF).
  • VIOLIN. Virtual Internetworking on Overlay Infrastructure.
  • X-Bone. The X-Bone dynamically deploys and manages Internet overlays to reduce configuration effort and increase network component sharing.
  • VDE. Virtual Distributed Ethernet (VDE) is a virtual network that can be spawned over a set of physical computer over the Internet.

  • UMLsimulator. Umlsim extends UML with an event-driven simulation engine and other instrumentation needed for deterministically controlling the flow of time as seen by the UML kernel and applications running under it.
  • SmartDomains. A tool for automated deployment and management of distributed Xen virtual machines, based on SmartFrog.
  • Enomalist VMD. A web-based manager for globally disperse virtual server environments, including deployment planning, load balancing, automatic VM migration, configuration management, and capacity diagnosis. Multiple physical servers can be managed as a single server.
  • GINI. A Toolkit for Constructing User-Level Micro Internets. GINI (GINI is not Internet) is an overlay experimentation platform for creating virtual micro Internets for teaching and learning.
  • vBET. A versatile and scalable emulation testbed based on the virtual machine technology.
  • Clownix. An evolved virtual switch for UML scenarios.
  • Marionnet. A virtual network laboratory which allows users to define, configure and run complex computer networks without any need for physical setup.
  • VXDL, a language to describe virtual infrastructures. Besides allowing end-resource description, it lets users describe the desired virtual network topology (using the same grammar), including virtual routers and timeline representation.

Cisco IOS emulation

  • Dynamips (the Cisco 7200 Simulator) and Dynagen (the Dynamips front-end). Have a look to the Example-Dyna to get an example of how these tools can be used together with VNUML.
