NetSim Emulator enables users to connect NetSim simulator to real hardware and interact with live
applications
Users can test the performance of real applications over a virtual network. If you are designing a new
network
or expanding an existing network then NetSim emulator will enable you to run your live application over
an
equivalent virtual network and see how the application is performing in real time.
Scenario of soldiers communicating as a Mobile Adhoc Network (MANET) using UHF/VHF radios created in
NetSim
emulation server
Each soldier is emulated by a virtual machine created inside physical server The MANET scenario in
NetSim
covers parameters for mobility, RF propagation losses, L3 / MAC / PHY protocol attributes etc.
Real-time traffic such as data, voice or video can be sent between the VM's i.e. from one soldier to
another
Output metrics such as loss, delay, error, throughput, quality of service etc. can be measured
Different
"What-if" scenarios can be played
What are the benefits?
Can be used to emulate a wide range of technologies
Switching, Routing, MANETs, Cognitive Radio networks, 4G-LTE networks, ZigBee networks
NetSim Emulator is a cost effective alternative to hardware emulators that have high costs,
complicated
configuration
requirements and limited scale
