Date: Thu, 16 Sep 2010 15:31:03 +0200 From: Martín Ferrari <martin.ferrari@...il.com> To: netdev <netdev@...r.kernel.org> Cc: Mathieu Lacage <mathieu.lacage@...hia.inria.fr>, Alina Quereilhac <Alina.Quereilhac@...hia.inria.fr> Subject: Announcing the netns library Hi, After a few months pestering this list with my bugs, I would like to bive something back by showing what I have been working on, in case it is useful for somebody. The netns library is a Python library that tries to make it easy to create a virtual network with realistic characteristics. It uses namespaces for the virtual nodes, veth links and bridges to connect them, and netem+tbf to emulate real world conditions. It is mainly aimed at network research, and it is part of a bigger project called NEPI, but I think netns is useful on its own, even when you just need something to handle all the painful configuration to set up namespaces. Of course, at this stage the API is not stable, and there are bugs, but the basic functionality is there. You can see more information about it here: http://yans.pl.sophia.inria.fr/trac/nepi/wiki/netns The mercurial repository is here: http://yans.pl.sophia.inria.fr/trac/nepi/wiki/netns A sample script to show the basic usage: http://yans.pl.sophia.inria.fr/code/hgwebdir.cgi/netns/file/tip/sample.py Don't hesitate to contact me if you are interested or have doubts.
